Description

Explore the complex relationship between evolutionary psychology and modern social narratives. In Gender, Sexuality and Reproduction in Evolutionary Narratives, Venla Oikkonen examines how evolutionary psychology creates popular visions of men and women driven by prehistoric genes. Rather than dismissing these theories, this work investigates the rhetorical power behind the Darwinian narrative tradition. This book provides a deep look into how contested concepts like teleology and variation are used within the field. By analyzing the investments made by evolutionary psychologists, Oikkonen offers a unique perspective on how these scientific ideas shape our understanding of human behavior and social structures. It is an essential read for those interested in the intersection of biology, sociology, and the history of scientific storytelling.

Key Features

Provides an analysis of how prehistoric genetic drivers are used to explain modern human gender and sexuality.

Investigates the use of contested scientific concepts such as teleology and variation within the field.

Offers a scholarly perspective that avoids simple dismissal of evolutionary psychology to look at its actual scientific investments.

Part of the Transformations series from the respected publisher Routledge.
