Reviews
"Humans are inherently neither nice nor nasty, but we use cooperative and competitive tools like choosing irons in golf. It is as unsettling a point as it is important, and Jonathan Goodman makes it all but incontrovertible."--David C. Lahti, The City University of New York "A timely and devastating exposé by a brilliant evolutionary psychologist. Jonathan Goodman argues that evil will triumph so long as good people fail to see that selfishness and double-dealing are basic human traits, to be found in everyone including themselves."--Nicholas Humphrey, author of Sentience: The Invention of Consciousness "A timely, erudite, and provocative book that is fun and an inspiring call to arms. Jonathan Goodman uses history, evolutionary biology and anthropology to explain why humans are hard-wired to cooperate - but also designed to embrace conflict and competition, with potentially dark outcomes."--Gillian Tett, Provost, King's College, Cambridge and author of Fool's Gold and Anthro-Vision "Competitive or cooperative? We are both, inextricably so; but what follows? Invisible Rivals takes us on a fascinating journey spanning anthropology, philosophy, evolutionary biology and more. Goodman's argument is highly approachable, yet also original, eloquent and persuasive. Both lack of trust and trust without discernment endanger the public sphere. The message could hardly be more timely and urgent."--Robert Attenborough, University of Cambridge and Australian National University "This fascinating , unique book links theories about our individual willingness or reluctance to cooperate, which is tied to how we manageglobal challenges of our time. Working across philosophy, evolutionary biology, public policy , and politics, Invisible Rivals is unlike any other book I've read."--Devi Sridhar, author of How Not to Die (Too Soon): The Lies We've Been Sold and the Policies That Could Save Us, "Humans are inherently neither nice nor nasty, but we use cooperative and competitive tools like choosing irons in golf.

Jonathan Goodman uses history, evolutionary biology, and anthropology to explain why humans are hard-wired to cooperate--but also designed to embrace conflict and competition, with potentially dark outcomes."--Gillian Tett, provost, King's College, Cambridge, and author of Fool's Gold and Anthro-Vision "In his fascinating debut Invisible Rivals , Goodman debunks simplistic theories of human selfishness, providing a highly nuanced and contextual account of human competition and cooperation with important implications for how to solve some of the world's biggest challenges, from global climate change to the spread of disinformation."--Sander van der Linden, author of Foolproof: Why Misinformation Infects Our Minds and How to Build Immunity "This fascinating, unique book links theories about our individual willingness or reluctance to cooperate, which is tied to how we manage global challenges of our time. Working across philosophy, evolutionary biology, public policy, and politics, Invisible Rivals is unlike any other book I've read."--Devi Sridhar, author of How Not to Die (Too Soon): The Lies We've Been Sold and the Policies That Could Save Us "A timely and devastating exposé by a brilliant evolutionary psychologist.

Synopsis
A multidisciplinary view of how our competitive and cooperative natures make us human For centuries, people have argued about whether humans are moral animals--good or bad, cooperative or competitive, altruistic or selfish. The debates continue today, dressed up in the language of modern science. In this book, Jonathan R. Goodman makes the case for synthesizing the two sides. Drawing on insights from anthropology, evolutionary biology, and philosophy, he argues that rather than being fundamentally cooperative or competitive, we are capable of being both--and of exploiting each other when there is an opportunity to do so. The core of invisible rivalry is how we make ourselves and others believe that we are acting cooperatively even as we manipulate those around us for our own benefit. In confronting this collective tendency toward self-interest, Goodman says, we can make the fundamental first step in fixing the breakdown of trust in society. Consequently, we will be better able to combat the myriad issues we face today, including widespread inequality, misinformation in a new technological environment, and climate change.

- r***r (2955)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Últimos 6 mesesCompra verificadaBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (13)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
- 0***i (3)- Votos emitidos por el comprador.Mes pasadoCompra verificadaThe first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
