The Murderer Next Door: Why the Mind Is Designed to Kill (Audiobook)
Based on a wealth of groundbreaking research, a leading psychologist's fascinating investigation of why we are all "wired to kill".Reporting on findings that are often startling and counterintuitive-the younger woman involved in a love triangle is at a high risk of being killed-he puts forth a bold new general theory of homicide, arguing that the human psyche has evolved specialized adaptations whose function is to kill.
Charles Siewert presents a distinctive approach to consciousness that emphasizes our first-person knowledge of experience and argues that we should grant consciousness, understood in this way, a central place in our conception of mind and intentionality. Written in an engaging manner that makes its recently controversial topic accessible to the thoughtful general reader, this book challenges theories that equate consciousness with a functional role or with the mere availability of sensory information to cognitive capacities.
Greek and Roman Comedy - Translations and Interpretations of Four Representative Plays
Much of what we know of Greco-Roman comedy comes from the surviving works of just four playwrights - the "Greeks Aristophanes" and "Menander" and the "Romans Plautus and Terence". To introduce these authors and their work to students and general readers, this book offers a new, accessible translation of a representative play by each playwright, accompanied by a general introduction to the author's life and times, a scholarly article on a prominent theme in the play, and a bibliography of selected readings about the play and playwright.
