According to Thornhill and Palmer, evolved adaptation of some sort gives rise to rape; the main evolutionary question is whether rape is an adaptation itself or a by-product of other adaptations." "The book includes a useful summary of evolutionary theory and a comparison of evolutionary biology's and social science's explanations of human behavior. The authors argue for the greater explanatory power and practical usefulness of evolutionary biology. The book is sure to stir up discussion both on the specific topic of rape and on the larger issues of how we understand and influence human behavior."--Jacket.RapeMenSexual behaviorHuman evolutionBIOMEDICAL SCIENCES/GeneralBIOMEDICAL SCIENCES/EvolutionRape.MenSexual behavior.Human evolution.364.15/32Thornhill Randy85561Palmer Craig T1530192OCoLC-POCoLC-PBOOK9910778889003321A natural history of rape3775065UNINA
