"Rethinking Social Evolution is a wide-ranging exploration of how language and increased cognitive abilities constitute the motor of social evolution. Drawing on a wide range of ethnographic case studies, Jerome Rousseau offers a better understanding of how modern societies continue to transform themselves and shows that societies are the result of choices by people who both collaborate and compete."--Jacket.
