12 Aug The Evolution of the Human Brain
The lectures “Evolutionary Psychology”, “The Evolution of the Human Brain” and “The Human Spark” addressed the traits that set humans apart from other species. The fairly long list of traits that set us apart includes autobiographical episodic memory, “nexting”, language, social cognition, cheater detection etc.
In a two page paper, chose two adaptations that make us human and discuss (a) the adaptive significance of these traits in promoting the survival of our ancestors and (b) how the adaptions could lead to a belief in the soul.
