The Mind Made Flesh: Essays from the Frontiers of Psychology and Evolution
Nicholas Humphrey's writings about the evolution of the mind have done much to set the agenda for contemporary psychology. Here, in a series of riveting essays, he invites us to 'take another look' at a variety of the central and not-so-central issues: the evolution of consciousness, the nature of the self, multiple personality disorder, the placebo effect, cave art, religious miracles, medieval animal trials, the seductions of dictatorship, and much more.

Praise for this book
"No other theoretical psychologist is so accessibly clear, and at the same time so provocatively philosophical."--Lorna Sage"Nobody else brings such an astonishing range of knowledge to bear on these issues."--Daniel Dennett"Humphrey's distinctive prose is the golden bowl in which his ripe and shining theories are held."--Antonella Gambotto
