Structures, functions, and content of morality are reconsidered as cultural, religious, and political components are added to the standard biological/environmental mix. Innovative concepts such as the Periodic Table of Ethics and evidence for morality in non-human species illuminate areas for further discussion and research. And some of the book’s contributors question premises we hold dear, such as morality as a product of reason, the existence of moral truths, and the motto “life is good.”  Highlights of the coverage:  The tripartite theory of Machiavellian morality: judgment, influence, and conscience as distinct moral adaptations. Prosocial morality from a biological, cultural, and developmental perspective. The containment problem and the evolutionary debunking of morality. A comparative perspective on the evolution of moral behavior. A moral guide to depravity: religiously-motivated violence and sexual selection. Game theory and the strategic logic of moral intuitions. The Evolution of Morality makes a stimulating supplementary text for advanced undergraduate and graduate courses in the evolutionary sciences, particularly in psychology, biology, anthropology, sociology, political science, religious studies, and philosophy.Evolutionary Psychology,2197-9898PersonalitySocial psychologyPersonality and Social Psychologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/Y20050Personality.Social psychology.Personality and Social Psychology.150Shackelford Todd Kedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtHansen Ranald Dedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910254689503321Evolution of Morality1733913UNINA
