The Biology of Human Behavior

Rocket Man:
I recently came across this pretty awesome series of lectures by Robert Sapolsky that teaches all about human behavioral biology. So far I've found the lectures to be entertaining as well as extremely informative. I wanted to share this and I know a lot of people here love science and learning new things. So if you have the time, I highly recommend watching the videos.

1. Introduction to Human Behavioral Biology

Citizen Skeptic:
This is great! Thanks. :)

I watched the first one and I'll probably be up for the next two days watching the rest.

The course is also available on itunes.

Rabbit:
That's really cool. Thanks for posting.

I wish I had that class in school.

Love one of the comments under the first video:
"i have been shrooming for eight hours this is fucking nuts".  ;D

Shrooms aren't required for this stuff methinks.  It's mental.

Citizen Skeptic:
I've watched the first four lectures now. They're all pretty easy to follow.

Nice, he's pretty good at exlaining concepts and adding some humor to it. I expecially like it when things like the founder effect which is something I learned about from a genetic perspectrive gets more indepth and shows how it also has thes potential to change behavior.
