Excerpt from The Kingdom of the Unselfish, or Empire of the Wise This book makes its appearance because the existing stage of social evolution demands something not yet possessed; and it is one of the many things evolved to supply that demand. But it may not prove well suited to the present state of opinion. In that case it will be better adapted to a later one, and if not read in this century may be in the next. That it will meet with hostile criticism from those who fail to apprehend its best meaning is quite likely. That it can do any serious harm, however, is not probable; not only because its motive is good, and because it is better to know the truth than to believe the unreal, but also because the human mind seems disposed to appropriate what is adapted to its condition of growth, and to refuse all that is beyond. There are other persons who will be able to appreciate the most of it; and these too, in all kindness, may find much to criticise adversely. The author has been continually conscious of such imperfection, and in excuse must reply that the work undertaken needed to be done; there was no one else to do it; and he has done the best he could.

No matter what we do, however kind or generous our deeds may seem, a hidden motive of selfishness lurks--or so science has claimed for years. This book, whose publication promises to be a major scientific event, tells us differently. In Unto Others philosopher Elliott Sober and biologist David Sloan Wilson demonstrate once and for all that unselfish behavior is in fact an important feature of both biological and human nature. Their book provides a panoramic view of altruism throughout the animal kingdom--from self-sacrificing parasites to insects that subsume themselves in the superorganism of a colony to the human capacity for selflessness--even as it explains the evolutionary sense of such behavior. Explaining how altruistic behavior can evolve by natural selection, this book finally gives credence to the idea of group selection that was originally proposed by Darwin but denounced as heretical in the 1960s. With their account of this controversy, Sober and Wilson offer a detailed case study of scientific change as well as an indisputable argument for group selection as a legitimate theory in evolutionary biology. Unto Others also takes a novel evolutionary approach in explaining the ultimate psychological motives behind unselfish human behavior. Developing a theory of the proximate mechanisms that most likely evolved to motivate adaptive helping behavior, Sober and Wilson show how people and perhaps other species evolved the capacity to care for others as a goal in itself. A truly interdisciplinary work that blends biology, philosophy, psychology, and anthropology, this book will permanently change not just our view of selfless behavior but also our understanding of many issues in evolutionary biology and the social sciences.

Science need not be dull and bogged down by jargon, as Richard Dawkins proves in this entertaining look at evolution. The themes he takes up are the concepts of altruistic and selfish behaviour; the genetical definition of selfish interest; the evolution of aggressive behaviour; kinshiptheory; sex ratio theory; reciprocal altruism; deceit; and the natural selection of sex differences. 'Should be read, can be read by almost anyone. It describes with great skill a new face of the theory of evolution.' W.D. Hamilton, Science

This book questions how the church properly fits into the larger picture of God's activity. It is based upon three solidly biblical yet highly controversial assumptions: 1) At any given moment, I am either building the Kingdom of God or the dominion of Darkness. Period. 2) It is possible to participate in church expansion and unintentionally be an agent for shrinking the Kingdom of God. 3) It is possible to unknowingly value the Kingdom of God before acknowledging the value of its Source: the King. The Kingdom Matrix contais four worldview quadrants that describe the values and preferences of four unique segments of our world Self Seekers Brand Expanders Kingdom Seekers Kingdom Expanders While an intellectual leap for many, this book is illustrated with humorous stories and commonplace examples, making it both an enjoyable and challenging read.
