Becoming Human: A Theory of Ontogeny

Becoming Human is a groundbreaking book that reveals the secret to humanity's unique development.

By examining the first seven years of a child's life, Tomasello uncovers the eight key factors that set humans apart from their primate relatives.

These include social cognition, communication, cultural learning, cooperative thinking, collaboration, prosociality, social norms, and moral identity.

Through extensive research with chimpanzees, bonobos, and children, Tomasello provides a comprehensive framework for understanding human growth between birth and seven years of age.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the mysteries of human development and the evolution of our species.
