Becoming Human
Clip: Episode 1 | 4m 14sVideo has Closed Captions
Explore how human minds and emotions evolved similarly to any physical features.
Our minds and emotions evolved in nature. To understand them we have to understand that evolution. We know a lot about how the human form came about and the rate at which the forebrain grew and the head shaped. But the one thing that’s been lacking in the explanation of the origin of humanity and, therefore, lacking in terms of the meaning of humanity is the origin of our social behavior.
