About This Book

Bregman challenges the pervasive belief that humans are naturally selfish and governed by self-interest. Drawing on archaeology, economics, and psychology, he argues that humans are evolutionarily hardwired for kindness and cooperation. The book reframes historical events and famous psychological experiments to present a more realistic and hopeful view of human nature.
