Book Synopsis Textbook of Evolutionary Psychiatry and Psychosomatic Medicine by : Martin Brüne
Book excerpt: This book is unique in taking an evolutionary perspective to understanding psychiatric and psychosomatic conditions. It explores how the human brain/mind has been shaped by natural and sexual selection and why adaptations to environmental conditions in our evolutionary past may not always work in our best interests.
