      The strange order of things, by Antonio Damasio. It's about the development of emotions and feelings, culture and ideology, technology and whatever else makes as human through the lenses of evolutionary biology, namely through the development of the neurological systems. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32335976-the-strange-ord... Others: The Wealth of Nations by Smith and the first books of The Capital by Marx.

      I believe Antonio Damasio, a neuroscientist, would have a different opinion. To everyone interested out there, i suggest reading The strange order of things. It's about the development of emotions and feelings, culture and ideology, technology and whatever else makes as human through the lenses of evolutionary biology, namely through the development of the neurological systems. https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/32335976-the-strange-ord...
