About this audiobook
This audiobook is narrated by a digital voice.
As you read this summary, you will discover how humanity has evolved into an organized and cooperative society.
You will also discover :
- that altruism appeared very early in biological evolution;
- that the species closest to mankind in terms of cooperation are found among insects;
- that in order to create groups, the individual had to put the interests of the group before his own;
- that eusociality, that advanced level of group cooperation, is the result of complex biological evolution;
- that the rapid cultural and social evolution of humanity was achieved through campfire conversations.
For much of history, religions have monopolized the question of humanity's existence. For them, the enigma was easy to solve. The gods would have placed you on Earth before telling you how to behave. Today, scientists have a clearer idea of the true history of creation. You now know a lot about how mankind was born. The story of our existence, very different from the one imagined by theologians, has proven to be very close to the history of other species. These have, like mankind, evolved into more or less advanced societies. What are the forces that have allowed you to be as you are today?
