Summer reading blag
Via Ordinary Chris Dierkes, I'm introduced to The Evolution of God, by Robert Wright. Above is an interesting interview with Ross Douthat.
I just ordered my copy, along with his previous books The Moral Animal and Nonzero: The Logic of Human Destiny. I'm pretty excited about this, as I have a (casual, underdeveloped) interest in the field and Wright's application of game theory sounds like it may be quite similar to my own notions of social evolution.
