—Evil is a puzzling and disturbing topic, but in Dark Nature, Watson takes evil out of the realm of monsters, aliens, devils and demons and puts it squarely where it belongs, in nature and in our everyday lives. Going beyond the usual moral, religious and philosophical explanations of human behavior, this book shows evil as a biological reality and how, as such, it should be dealt with.

At a time when violence threatens to become epidemic and genocide takes the place of diplomacy in many regions of the world, it is no longer enough to simply dismiss such dark behavior as "human nature." People need to know why such atrocities and horrors take place, and the usual moral, religious, political and philosophical explanations have proved inadequate. With Dark Nature, world naturalist Lyall Watson presents a scientific examination of evil. Drawing on the latest insights of genetics, evolutionary ethology, anthropology and psychology, he takes the discussion of evil out of the realm of monsters and demons to reveal it for what it truly A biological reality that may be terrifying but can be controlled. Groundbreaking, fascinating and eminently readable, Dark Nature is a vital and timely antidote to modern despair.
