Default Re: SMP book/essay club

NotReady,

excellent suggestion for a good book to bring the S back to SMP


RDuke,

Something I read for a class that I think might be great for this is "Agile Gene" by Matt Ridley. Its a very easy to read look at human behaviour, and a history of the nature vs nuture debate.


Also.. with regard to papers, Id like to see something out of theoretical biology. I actually have a fairly good introductery look at foraging theory from a class in PDF format that might be good, and I could definitely post it.

The reason Id like to see something out of this field, is that I have the feeling that people on here really havent seen / dont believe in modeling biology
