Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is probably ten years ahead of its time. That is, in ten years or so, it will be commonplace for evolutionary psychologists and evolutionary biologists to apply sperm competition theory to humans. Shackelford and Pound, however, have already recognized the utility of applying sperm competition theory to humans, and they complied the first volume of this developing literature. There's an original chapter that provides an up to date overview of the field, and the remaining chapters are labeled as "classic and contemporary readings". They're also fascinating and balanced. It's really nice to have all of this work in one place.
