Why do we do the things we do? In Behave, acclaimed neuroscientist and primatologist Robert Sapolsky delivers one of the most ambitious and comprehensive books ever written about the biology of human behavior. Published by Vintage, this masterwork dives deep into the factors—biological, psychological, cultural, and environmental—that shape the choices we make, from spur-of-the-moment decisions to long-term patterns.
Spanning everything from neuroscience and genetics to sociology and anthropology, Behave offers a sweeping look at how our brains and bodies function across time scales—from milliseconds before an action to millennia of evolutionary history. Sapolsky’s writing is as witty and accessible as it is intellectually rigorous, making complex science both engaging and illuminating.
Whether you’re fascinated by the science of aggression, morality, decision-making, or empathy, this book offers a profound look into what makes us human.
