One and a Half Natures of Man – 02. Bibliography
A list of references to sources that may be useful for studying the course «Satiety, Sex, Status: Evolutionarily Conditioned Mechanisms of Behaviour in Humans and Other Animals»
The course «Satiety, Sex, Status: Evolutionarily Conditioned Mechanisms of Behaviour in Humans and Other Animals» is, in its essence, not the assimilation of a fixed canon but rather an acquaintance with controversial problems and their discussion. For this purpose, working with the literature is, of course, necessary.
For a long time, the literature presented here consisted predominantly of Russian-language translations of English-language sources. Both for the author and for a large portion of students, absorbing educational material in Russian was more straightforward. Be that as it may, this should change. The Russian language has been very “unlucky”: the state that is the titular bearer of this language has become totalitarian and has become a threat not only to the existence of our country but to the existence of developed societies across the world. The following strategy will be adopted here. Literature posted hereafter will be primarily in English. Where Russian translations exist, access to them will also be offered, but the course author will recommend using the primary sources.
I draw the attention of rights holders of texts posted on this site to an important circumstance. These texts are placed here for use in the context of an academic course. The site authors receive no benefit from providing access to this literature! I hope that those who could purchase these books will do so with particular pleasure after becoming acquainted with their electronic versions.
