The Evolution of Beauty 在線電子書用戶評價

評分☆☆☆☆☆

我們所學的進化論很大程度上是華萊士的群體自然選擇進化論，而達爾文的進化論更廣泛，包括瞭美學，個體選擇和自然選擇等。現代科學對於美學有兩個觀點：統計大神Fisher的female choice和good genes（例如不利條件原則），作者更傾嚮於Fisher。最喜歡的作者的觀點是：falling love is not game theory. Coevolution of aesthetic adaption and female choice have made it a deeply aesthetic experience that involves mutual social, cognitive, and physical seduction. 後幾章關於女權和LGB也很有趣。

非常好看！顛覆瞭我對演化論的認知。從鳥類談到人類，並為現在方興未艾的女權主義與LGBT平權運動提供瞭理論支援（雖然後幾章腦洞略大...）.不愧是同時入選《紐約時報》與《華爾街日報》2017年度書單的著作。

評分☆☆☆☆☆

將達爾文被忽視的伴侶選擇理論深化並延伸，提供新視角來審視擇偶偏好的形成和進化，否定且diss瞭以自然選擇為基礎的主流觀點和進化心理學理論，強調“美”和女性擇偶偏好的主導作用。作為去年紐約時段的十佳，很值得讀，裏麵眾多觀點很有趣。

評分☆☆☆☆☆

這本書從很多方麵來說都和from bacteria to Bach and back很像。並非所有的trait都是自然選擇，有性選擇也有社會選擇也發揮瞭作用。有些trait留下來並非好到適者生存，而是沒有壞到不適生存。性選擇主要的驅動力是女性自主權。按照Dennett的說法也許是competence without comprehension。但是讀完後依舊會覺得有些理論證據是對方理論的不足之處，但沒有自己的證明證據。我讀這本書的時候很開心，但對從生物學裏麵moralizing始終感到矛盾。

The Evolution of Beauty 在線電子書圖書描述

A major reimagining of how evolutionary forces work, revealing how mating preferences—what Darwin termed “the taste for the beautiful”—create the extraordinary range of ornament in the animal world.

In the great halls of science, dogma holds that Darwin’s theory of natural selection explains every branch on the tree of life: which species thrive, which wither away to extinction, and what features each evolves. But can adaptation by natural selection really account for everything we see in nature?

Yale University ornithologist Richard Prum—reviving Darwin’s own views—thinks not. Deep in tropical jungles around the world are birds with a dizzying array of appearances and mating displays: Club-winged Manakins who sing with their wings, Great Argus Pheasants who dazzle prospective mates with a four-foot-wide cone of feathers covered in golden 3D spheres, Red-capped Manakins who moonwalk. In thirty years of fieldwork, Prum has seen numerous display traits that seem disconnected from, if not outright contrary to, selection for individual survival. To explain this, he dusts off Darwin’s long-neglected theory of sexual selection in which the act of choosing a mate for purely aesthetic reasons—for the mere pleasure of it—is an independent engine of evolutionary change.

Mate choice can drive ornamental traits from the constraints of adaptive evolution, allowing them to grow ever more elaborate. It also sets the stakes for sexual conflict, in which the sexual autonomy of the female evolves in response to male sexual control. Most crucially, this framework provides important insights into the evolution of human sexuality, particularly the ways in which female preferences have changed male bodies, and even maleness itself, through evolutionary time.

The Evolution of Beauty presents a unique scientific vision for how nature’s splendor contributes to a more complete understanding of evolution and of ourselves.
