Abstract:
On January 9, bestselling author and psychologist Michael Shermer will lecture and host a book-signing reception at the New York Academy of Sciences for his latest book, The Mind of the Market: Compassionate Apes, Competitive Humans, and Other Tales from Evolutionary Economics. In his eye-opening book, Dr. Shermer uncovers the evolutionary roots of our economic behavior and discusses how humans made the leap from ancient hunter-gatherers to modern consumers and traders, why people get so emotional and irrational about bottom line financial and business decisions, and whether the capitalist marketplace is a sort of Darwinian organism that evolved through natural selection. (Podcast available at NYAS on Jan 25, 2008)
