New York Times bestseller • Winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize • One of the Washington Post 's 10 Best Books of the Year
"It's no exaggeration to say that Behave is one of the best nonfiction books I've ever read." ---David P. Barash, The Wall Street Journal

"Immensely readable, often hilarious...Hands-down one of the best books I've read in years. I loved it." ---Dina Temple-Raston, The Washington Post
From the bestselling author of A Primate's Memoir and Determined: A Science of Life Without Free Will comes a landmark, genre-defining examination of human behavior and an answer to the question: Why do we do the things we do?
Behave is one of the most dazzling tours d'horizon of the science of human behavior ever attempted. Moving across a range of disciplines, Sapolsky---a neuroscientist and primatologist---uncovers the hidden story of our actions. Undertaking some of our thorniest questions relating to tribalism and xenophobia, hierarchy and competition, and war and peace, Behaveis a towering achievement---a majestic synthesis of cutting-edge research and a heroic exploration of why we ultimately do the things we do . . . for good and for ill.
