The Evolutionary Origin of Human Behavior: How Play and Evolution Carried Us from Our Reptile Predecessors to The Storytellers We Are Hardcover – 12 Mar. 2009

I have just finished this book and I'm writing this review mainly for thanking the author for the wonderful moments I had with it. I picked this book randomly in Amazon because I'm interested in some of the subjects it covers and I had never heard of the author or his work before.But what a joyful surprise it was! Keith C. M. Glegg's ideas are incredibly interesting, well developed, clearly explained and overall entertaining. From the first page down to epilogue, he takes the reader by the hand and shares his very particular views of how our brain came to be and how it would fundamentally work, together with the consequences this brings to the way we understand and interact with the world. Whether or not his ideas will be proven true in the future (if such a thing can ever be possible), I'm very happy that evolution has driven us to the point where he could write this amazing book and, from the other corner of the world, I could enjoy it so much!!
