Más información sobre el libro

Exploring the nature of morality, the book argues that individuals and creatures act primarily from self-interest, devoid of absolute good or evil. It highlights how communities often unite against a common enemy, manipulated by those with vested interests. Drawing parallels between human and animal behavior, it discusses the instinctual roots of aggression and the cultural mechanisms that regulate it. The text also reflects on moral teachings, suggesting that prohibitions, rather than regulations, shape societal behavior, echoing insights from figures like Moses and Christ.
