Edward O. Wilson is one of the world’s preeminent biologists, a Pulitzer Prize winner, and the author of more than 25 books. The defining work in a remarkable career, The Social Conquest of Earth boldly addresses age-old questions (Where did we come from? What are we? Where are we going?) while delving into the biological sources of morality, religion, and the creative arts.

Reseñas de la Crítica

“Wilson’s newest theory...could transform our understanding of human nature—and provide hope for our stewardship of the planet.... [His] new book is not limited to the discussion of evolutionary biology, but ranges provocatively through the humanities.... Its impact on the social sciences could be as great as its importance for biology, advancing human self-understanding in ways typically associated with the great philosophers.” (Howard W. French, The Atlantic)
“a huge, deep, thrilling work, presenting a radically new but cautiously hopeful view of human evolution, human nature, and human society. No one but E. O. Wilson could bring together such a brilliant synthesis of biology and the humanities, to shed light on the origins of language, religion, art, and all of human culture.” (Oliver Sacks)
“Never shy about tackling big questions, veteran evolutionary biologist Wilson delivers his thoughtful if contentious explanation of why humans rule the Earth... Wilson succeeds in explaining his complex ideas, so attentive readers will receive a deeply satisfying exposure to a major scientific controversy.” ( Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review)

This was a fantastic listen for about the first 22 chapters. Wilson build theirs cases for why things happened throughout early evolution very methodically and relies on well studied data. But then somewhere around chapter 23/24 (when it gets to more modern social elements) they abandon and often undermine all the “rules” and truths they relied on earlier. It felt more like vapid opinion honestly and lessened the whole package. Not sure I would recommend since it falls off a Cliff like that.

Starts very strong but undermines its self

I've read a bunch of Richard Dawkins' books before this and Wilson's book is just icing on the cake. Wilson writes better than a poet and really has a lot to say that's interesting in the field.

Wow, Wilson has a lot to say and boy can he write.

Outstanding overview of our social development, both good and bad. The book was well written and very simple to follow. the narration was well spoken and direct.

Terrific summarization of our social development

Well argued book. Not pedantic in the least. Wilson expects an intellectual audience , I value that.

Engaging
