Sobre IBD

Political correctness has reduced social anthropology to a state of terminal incoherence, and this collection of papers demolishes some of the fashionable taboos that are involved. The ultra-Darwinism of some sociobiologists has also degenerated into a cult which, like political correctness, is increasingly resistant to rational debate. As well as including some well-known classics, some new papers have been specially written for this collection showing the irrelevance of Darwinism to the social sciences. 3

All songs were written with circles in the musical staff, and there are no stems or flags - only notes on the line - to keep it simple. This e-book was written with...
