I've barely just started the book and I already find it fantastic, thought-altering. Can't believe I'll be disappointed by the following chapters...

This book is equally fascinating and depressing.
It opens your eyes to the contradictions in your current beliefs and values, and to just how thinly they are covered by natural (or rather, biological) reasons. That is, if you allow your eyes to be opened.
The only rather positive thing that I've read so far, is this idea that "biology enables, culture forbids" - when talking about cultural taboos / hierarchies.
