About this product
Product Information
Robert Wright challenges the conventional view that biological evolution and human history are aimless. Employing game theory - the logic of zero-sum and non-zero-sum games - he isolates the impetus behind life's basic direction: the impetus that, via biological evolution, created complex, intelligent animals, and then via cultural evolution, pushed the human species towards deeper and vaster social complexity. In this view, the coming of today's independent global society was on the cards - not quite inevitable, but, as Wright puts it, so probable as to inspire wonder . Wright takes on some of the past century's most prominent thinkers, including Isaiah Berlin, Karl Popper, Stephen Jay Gould, and Richard Dawkins, arguing that a coolly specific appraisal of humanity's three-billion-year past can give new spiritual meaning to the present and even offer political guidance for the future.

- c***m (123)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent service: ordered late on Sunday, good tracking, delivered by Royal Mail on Wednesday. The book was well wrapped , correct description of condition (good). Low price.
- n***a (37)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI ordered 2 copies and the first arrived very quickly and as described. The invoice stated that the second was being sent separately. I tried tracking but it only referred to the first book. After over a week I contacted them and received an e-mail telling me they didn't have any copies and would refund me. So I've had to access another copy from elsewhere for my son.
- l***g (340)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseI have rated this as a positive experience due to the way the seller handled the issue of the book never arriving, and tracking never updating. They replied within the hour to my message, were courteous and efficient. They offered apologies and instantly arranged a refund. Very happy with how this was handled, it can happen that stuff doesn’t make it through the postal system and how it’s handled by seller makes a difference. I would have no hesitation buying from them again.
