Excerpt from Evolution and the War This little book is based on three lectures on "Evolution and War," given at the Royal Institution in February, 1915. The lectures were delivered orally, with the assistance of notes, and as soon as possible afterwards I wrote out what I had said, rearranging the matter in a form more suitable for reading, and adding some details for which I had no time at the lectures. I have also made fuller reference to contemporary events than was permitted by the custom of the Institution. Although the lectures would not have been given but for the war, the ideas that underlie them are not a by-product of current politics. The points of resemblance and difference between nations and species I discussed, on similar lines, in an article published in The North American Review in October, 1904. In the account of race and nationality, given in Chapter III, I have followed in broad outline the facts that Professor Ripley has presented so lucidly in The Races of Europe. In a strictly anthropological discussion, many minor considerations, some of them dealt with by Dr. Ripley himself, others raised by other anthropologists and ethnologists, would have to be reviewed.

Thorough, highly informative and exhaustive study presents an exceptional collection of cases examining such topics as warfare as the business of one sex, religion as a cause of war, and war for the sake of glory. Cannibalism, human sacrifice, blood-revenge, and other factors in warfare among primitive peoples are also expertly examined.

“Shows a mastery of research and theory in both biology and international relations and weaves the two fields together in a compelling fashion.” —Dr. Steven A. Peterson, Director, School of Public Affairs, Penn State Pathbreaking and controversial, Darwin and International Relations offers the first comprehensive analysis of international affairs of state through the lens of evolutionary theory. Using ethnological and statistical studies of warfare among tribal societies, Bradley A. Thayer argues that humans wage war for reasons predicted by evolutionary theory?to gain and protect vital resources but also for the physically and emotionally stimulating effects of combat. Thayer demonstrates that an evolutionary understanding of disease will become a more important part of the study of international relations as new strains of diseases emerge and advances in genetics make biological warfare a more effective weapon for states and terrorists. He also explains the deep causes of ethnic conflict by illuminating how xenophobia and ethnocentrism evolved in humans. He notes that these behaviors once contributed to our ancestors’ success in radically different environments, but they remain a part of us. Darwin and International Relations makes a major contribution to our understanding of human history and the future of international relations. “Obligatory reading for social and life scientists alike, and deserves to become a standard work in political science.” —International History Review “A thoughtful book that can challenge some of our comfortable assumptions.” —Journal of Military History “Outstanding! This book will become a standard work in political science.” —Roger D. Masters, Dartmouth College

"The chapters in this book [posit] that humans clearly have the capacity to make war, but since war is absent in some cultures, it cannot be viewed as a human universal. And counter to frequent presumption, the actual archaeological record reveals the recent emergence of war. It does not typify the ancestral type of human society, the nomadic forager band, and contrary to widespread assumptions, there is little support for the idea that war is ancient or an evolved adaptation. Views of human nature as inherently warlike stem not from the facts but from cultural views embedded in Western thinking"--Amazon.com.
