Psychology of Human Behavior

Psychology of Human Behavior Synopsis

This book examines the psychology of human behavior which is dominated by the topic of how the extant behavior of modern humans may have developed, thus establishing an empirical framework for comprehending human ethology. An etiology of human behavior clearly has to be grounded in an understanding of its historical development through time, which is an aspect that has so far not received adequate consideration in scientific literature, be it that of psychology, psychiatry, human evolution, neuroscience, cognitive science, or paleoanthropology. The distinctly interdisciplinary format of this book provides an inkling into the complexity of dealing with human behavior, and the reasons for its complexity relative to the behavior of other animal species.
