About this book

Une longue tradition philosophique et scientifique situe l'origine de la moralité humaine non dans l'évolution mais dans la culture : nous serions moraux par choix et non pas nature. Bien plus, la moralité serait une fine écorce recouvrant une nature par ailleurs mauvaise. «C'est l'animal en nous», entendons-nous souvent quand notre comportement a laissé à désirer.Sa réflexion va bien au-delà de l'opposition simpliste entre nature et culture et illustre l'alliance novatrice de la philosophie et de la biologie au service de l'éthique.
