Robert Sapolsky on the Uniqueness of Humans




Sapolsky uses vivid examples to discusses the basic similarities between humans and animals vis a vis aggression, theory of mind, reciprocation, empathy, anticipation and culture, and goes on to describe our uniqueness in that we take these concepts to new advanced levels. An excellent introduction to comparative behaviour for laymen.
