Living Fossils applies evolutionary psychology to mental health, social life, economics and politics, asking what happens when minds shaped for ancestral environments meet modern life. Issues cover topics such as a new recipe-style theory of storytelling, a structured debate on CBT versus other therapies, and an economic take on taxing car honking.
