This work aims to show that, contrary to the received wisdom, the ideas of the two most influential thinkers of the modern age were not by definition antagonistic or antithetical, but are in fact part of a neglected whole only now being unearthed by a new breed of scientist. This book proves how Freud was right and Darwin was right - sex is the motor of human behaviour. The author shows why: we have evolved to love our children while neglecting ourselves; you fight hardest, and squabble most fiercely with those least dissimilar to you, for example, your (nearly) close relations; a woman will always invest more in her child than her man (be he a new man or an old one), and she will typically favour a male child over a female; marrying your first cousin might not be such a bad idea; the likelihood of any murder being committed by a step-parent is staggeringly high; homosexuals behave, in a way, like cryptic heterosexuals; we are very ambivalent about incest - we are repelled by it, and we are attracted to it, at the same time.

Blood Rites Horror

<p>The diametric model of the mind and of mental illness is based on Hans Asperger s depiction of autism as a deficit condition where our ability to understand other people s behaviour in terms of intention, emotion, and meaning, is concerned: what it calls mentalism. According to the model, psychosis is a state of hyper-mentalism in which intention metastasizes into paranoia, emotion into mania, and meaning into delusions of all kinds. The most important insight of the diametric model is that perceived reality is complex in the sense in which complex numbers are: comprising a real part based in the physical world of cause and effect but also an imaginary part in a mind which has free will. The book develops this model of the mind by showing how it resolves most of the paradoxes of IQ and AI, along with giving a unique insight into modern society. It then goes on to give an up-to-date account of the imprinted brain theory which provides its neuroscientific basis and argues that literacy and fiction in particular plays a key role. Finally, the diametric model is presented as a new paradigm for psychiatry, psychology, and the social sciences</p>
