Are we evolutionarily predispositioned for the politics we believe in? Psychologist Hector A. Garcia thinks so. In his new book, he breaks down how the most complex political processes can be influenced by our basic instincts and ancestral histories. A new lens on politics and how we evaluate the self, Garcia offers insight into how we might better understand ourselves and people on the other side of the aisle.
