83. Sociobiology
    sociobiology. Over time, Wilson s sociobiology found more and more supporters among biologists, psychologists, and even anthropologists.  
    http://mind-brain.com/personality/sociobiology.html
    
    Extractions: TheUltimate Theoryof Personality Ever since Darwin came out with his theory of evolution, people - including Darwin himself have been speculating on how our social behaviors (and feelings, attitudes, and so on) might also be affected by evolution. After all, if the way our bodies look and work as biological creatures can be better understood through evolution, why not the things we do with those bodies? The entemologist E. O Wilson was the first to formalize the idea that social behavior could be explained evolutionarily, and he called his theory sociobiology. At first, it gained attention only in biological circles even there it had strong critics. When sociologists and psychologists caught wind of it, the controversy really got started. At that time, sociology was predominantly structural-functionalist, with a smattering of Marxists and feminists. Psychology was still dominated by behaviorist learning theory, with humanism starting to make some headway. Not one of these theories has much room for the idea that we, as human beings, could be so strongly determined by evolutionary biology! Over time, Wilson's sociobiology found more and more supporters among biologists, psychologists, and even anthropologists. Only sociology has remained relatively unaffected.

Search Comment The deluded gene Sociobiology is a one-dimensional tyranny that fails to consider our complexities as human beings Hywel Williams Guardian Wednesday June 19, 2002 Do you forage alone? Or do you optimise hunter-gathering capacity when doing the weekly shop? A mate is useful when dealing with other hunter-gatherers bearing down on you with their trolleys. The sight of those battering rams along the aisles seems to show that there's a lot of cave person inside us. Perhaps you feel triumphant at seeing so "basic" a universal law in action, or do you feel queasy? Still, can't be helped. This is the way humans are. Back home, as you relax in your upholstered nest, you may evolve future outcomes for your genes. You are, let us say, a successful breeder. Now you ponder on how to maximise that achievement. You like your kinship group - so why not help out with the relatives' shopping? After all, they share your genes, and you want to ensure that what's bred in the tribal bone will carry on breeding.

86. Steve Sailer: "E.O. Wilson's Sociobiology At Age 25" - National Review, 6/19/200
    sociobiology at Age 25. Only the last of sociobiology s 26 chapters is devoted solely to human societies, yet it blazed a trail that many others followed.  
    http://www.isteve.com/Sociobiology.htm
    
    Extractions: Great fiction does not grow obsolete. Nor in it's own way does great propaganda. In contrast, truly important scientific books render themselves obsolete by opening new fields for subsequent scholars to elaborate. Edward O. Wilson's 1975 landmark Sociobiology , which introduced neo-Darwinism to the publicand which has now been reissued to mark its 25th anniversaryis just such a book. Vast yet coherent, Sociobiology demonstrated in rigorous detail how Darwinian selection molded the various ways in which all animalsfrom the lowly corals to the social insects to the highest primatescompete and cooperate with others of their own species. Outraging the leftists who dominated academia, Wilson suggested numerous analogies between animal and human societies. While men have drawn such parallels since long before Aesop, Wilson's command of natural history and the power of neo-Darwinian theory in unifying this vast body of knowledge lent credibility to his grand ambition to reduce social science to a branch of biology, just as, Wilson argued, biology could ultimately be reduced to chemistry and chemistry to physics. .

    ETSB. ETHOLOGY AND sociobiology. sociobiology. The systematic study of the biological basis of all social behavior (Edward O. Wilson).  
    http://www.kli.ac.at/theorylab/Areas/ETSB.html
    
    Extractions: Other resources Uniqueness can be the product of processes that are themselves general to all living matter. When I first encountered the term "evolutionary psychology," I thought it referred to the study of how mind and behavior have evolved. But I was mistaken. In the last decade, evolutionary psychology has come to refer exclusively to research on human mentality and behavior, motivated by a very specific, nativist- adaptationist interpretation of how evolution operates .... This is a strange, anthropocentric usage, akin to identifying human biology with "biology" generally, or describing geography as "astronomy." Introduction Barry Sinervo The research covered in this area introduction encompasses a very large domain. For the sake of convenience, we have divided it in clusters that are listed alphabetically under the conventional labels "animal behavior," "animal cognition," "ethology," "behavioral ecology," "cognitive ecology," "neuroethology," "sociobiology," and "evolutionary psychology." It should be borne in mind throughout that these labels reflect little more than the contingencies of the history of behavioral biology, and that in practice, the boundaries between these sub-areas tend to be quite blurred.

89. The New Atlantis - The Rise And Fall Of Sociobiology - Peter A. Lawler
    The Rise and Fall of sociobiology. Peter Augustine Lawler. This is the partial truth of sociobiology, if not the whole truth about being human.  
    http://www.thenewatlantis.com/archive/1/lawler.htm
    
    Extractions: The Rise and Fall of Sociobiology Peter Augustine Lawler hree views of the relationship between human beings and nature have been hugely influential in recent decades: social constructionism, sociobiology, and biotechnology. Each contains a good deal of truth, and each is still an influential force today. But like all popularized science, these big pictures gain clarity by distorting reality. Each presents part of the truth about being human by disfiguring the whole. Social constructionism is the belief that human nature does not matter or exist, and that most of what we believe about human nature is actually the product of human institutions and cultures, and therefore open to be changed. Sociobiology is the belief that human beings have real natures and natural purposes, but natures and purposes that are fully intelligible through evolution and not really different from those of the other animals. Biotechnology is not so much a belief but a project, which involves using our knowledge of human biology to improve human life and perhaps remake human nature. It thus presumes at least some measure of discontent with what we are now, as well as the existence of an objective biological nature (or “system”) which it can reliably manipulate.

    Kalamu Ya Salaam. Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten. Robert Fulghum. Sermon sociobiology, Spirituality, and Free Will.  
    http://www.revjm.com/sociobiowill.htm
    
    Extractions: A response to the following sermon: A Scientist Replies: An email conversation between Rev. Joel and Tom Clark Readings: Name the Oldest Member of Your Family [Kalamu Ya Salaam] Everything I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten [Robert Fulghum] Sermon: Sociobiology, Spirituality, and Free Will When I wake in the morning, after I have my coffee, I look at my calendar and begin to plan my day. It appears to me, as I plan and drink my coffee, that I am making decisions – that I have choices about what I will do, that my actions that day are voluntary. Our entire society is based upon this idea that we have a choice over how we behave. If we drive faster than the speed limit, and a police office sees us speeding, that office will stop us and give us a ticket, a fine, and the purpose of that fine is to help us choose not to speed, but to choose instead to drive more slowly. In our Western Culture, we think of this ability to make choices about our lives as a secular, universally accepted principle: we assume human beings have a freedom of will. We are animals that can imagine a range of actions in any given moment, and we have at the very least a partial freedom to choose from these actions one specific deed, and that we have a limited ability to understand what consequences will follow as a result of our having performed that deed.
