Offering an inter-disciplinary approach, the authors incorporate psychology, evolutionary biology and neuroscience into the discussions. And, ultimately, they consider what it means to be ?rational?, why we so often indulge in ?irrational? and self-harming behavior, and also why ?irrational? behavior can sometimes serve us well.
