ISBN: 9783110246322 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 247 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why give money to beggars? Why make sacrifices to help others? The current volume targets such questions with the tools of neoclassical and behavioural economics, philosophy, and sociology of religion. Both religion and economics are analyzed as social institutions that support human intra-group cooperation. Even if individuals are rational maximizers of personal utility, they yet must take into account the reciprocal nature of human relationships.

How Religion Works: Towards a New Cognitive Science of Religion
ISBN: 9789004123199 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych.

The specific salience of religious ideas is based on the fact that they are 'counter-intuitive': they contradict our intuitive expectations of how entities normally behave. Counter-intuitive ideas are only produced by a mind capable of crossing the boundaries that separate such ontological domains as persons, living things, and solid objects. The evolution of such a mind...
