Are men literally born to cheat? Does monogamy actually serve women's interests? These are among the questions that have made The Moral Animal one of the most provocative science books in recent years. Wright unveils the genetic strategies behind everything from our sexual preferences to our office politics - as well as their implications for our moral codes and public policies.

The Moral Animal is a diagnosis of the human condition and explains why or brains work the way they do based on evolution. The idea are well-thought and thoroughly researched and help you re-analyze how you look at the world, how you treat others, and your sense of self. Wright also uses the life of Charles Darwin as a consistent example of how the mind works. Thus, on top of the scientific and philosophical insights it's an interesting take on a sort-of biography of Darwin.
My only additional note is Wright is very verbose and writes like an academic in this book, so it is a little dense. If you get through this one and read "Why Buddhism is True," however, his writing style changes significantly and becomes more casual and conversational. Either way, this book is a great read.
Informative and Enlightening

I feel like I am seeing human nature laid bare. I find myself shaking my head in awe, because after I hear Wright's characterization of some social dynamic, it seems so clear obvious in retrospect that I can't believe it's not common knowledge.
I also love the way Wright applies the principles of evolutionary psychology to analyze episodes in Darwin's life. Wright's Darwinian understanding of human nature enriches the book's view into Darwin's life.
This is one of the best books in the entire Audible collection. A must-listen.
