The Evolutionary Epidemiology of Mania and Depression: A Theoretical and Empirical Interpretation of Mood Disorders

By Gerald A. Cory Jr. and Daniel R. Wilson

This book lays the essential groundwork for and consequences of the sub-discipline of evolutionary epidemiology as a theoretical and empirical science. It presents an elaborate yet elegant model of neuromental evolution that not only moves evolutionary psychology well beyond its present inattention to either brains or genes, but also, for the first time, operationally defines the normal limits of human sociality.
