Universal Kinship (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781161368475)

Universal Kinship by J. Howard Moore is a philosophical and scientific exploration of the concept of kinship and its implications for human society. The book argues that all living beings, including humans, are interconnected and share a common ancestry, and that this kinship should inform our ethical and moral values. Moore draws on evolutionary biology, anthropology, and sociology to build his case, and explores topics such as the origins of human society, the nature of family and community, and the role of empathy and compassion in our relationships with others. He also examines the ways in which our understanding of kinship has been shaped by cultural and historical factors, and argues that a more expansive view of kinship could help to promote greater social harmony and cooperation. Overall, Universal Kinship is a thought-provoking and insightful work that challenges readers to reconsider their assumptions about the nature of human relationships and our place in the natural world.1918.
