Why Men?: A Human History of Violence and Inequality

by Joanthan Neale and Nancy Lindisfarne

Book Overview

How did humans, a species that evolved to be cooperative and egalitarian, develop societies of enforced inequality? Why did our ancestors create patriarchal power and warfare? Did it have to be this way?

Elites have always called hierarchy and violence unavoidable facts of human nature. Evolution, they claim, has caused men to fight, and people--starting with men and women--to have separate, unequal roles. But that is bad science.
