This book by E. O. Wilson came up once on Andrew Huberman in the episodes we index. That mention was a genuine on-air recommendation, not just a passing reference. The people who brought it up: Bernardo Huberman. Every occurrence below links to the episode page and to the exact second it was said on YouTube.
Presents a philosophy based on sociobiological theory and applying the theory of natural selection to human society.
“reading Wilson actually IO Wilson which you know he wrote this beautiful book on human nature and he claims that the religious Instinct comes out of a submissive component in us”— Bernardo Huberman

Known for foundational work in chaos theory, the economics of computation/attention, and now quantum networking. Andrew Huberman interviews his father, physicist Bernardo Huberman, on a life of curiosity spanning relativity, chaos, quantum internet, and the art of a joyful, grounded life.
