En savoir plus sur le livre

The exploration of goodness in both animals and humans challenges the notion of survival of the fittest, a dilemma that troubled Charles Darwin during the development of his theory of evolution. His observations led to concerns that altruistic behavior could undermine his ideas. This inquiry has sparked a longstanding debate among scientists, philosophers, and religious thinkers about the origins of kindness, intertwining with various fields and remaining a significant question in evolutionary biology.
