Title: Spite Author: Simon McCarthy-Jones Narrator: Chris Clarkson Format: mp3 Length: 6 hrs and 5 mins Release date: 04-13-21 Ratings: 4.5 out of 5 stars, 8 ratings Genres: Evolution & Genetics Publisher's Summary: Spite seems utterly useless. You don't gain anything by hurting yourself just so you can hurt someone else. So why hasn't evolution weeded out all the spiteful people? As psychologist Simon McCarthy-Jones argues, spite seems pointless because we're looking at it wrong. Spite isn't just what we feel when a car cuts us off or when a partner cheats. It's what we feel when we want to punish a bad act simply because it was bad. Spite is our fairness instinct, an innate resistance to exploitation, and it is one of the building blocks of human civilization.
