It covers the United States, every state, each metropolitan statistical area, and all the counties and cities with a population of 20,000 or more. Who: Age, Race and Ethnicity, and Household Structure What: Education, Employment, and Income Where: Migration, Housing, and Transportation Each part is preceded by highlights and ranking tables that show how areas diverge from the national norm. These research aids are invaluable for understanding data from the ACS and for highlighting what it tells us about who we are, what we do, and where we live.

In the compelling popular science tradition of Sapiens and Guns, Germs, and Steel, a groundbreaking and eye-opening exploration that applies evolutionary science to provide a new perspective on human psychology, revealing how major challenges from our past have shaped some of the most fundamental aspects of our being.
The most fundamental aspects of our lives--from leadership and innovation to aggression and happiness--were permanently altered by the "social leap" our ancestors made from the rainforest to the savannah. Their struggle to survive on the open grasslands required a shift from individualism to a new form of collectivism, which forever altered the way our mind works. It changed the way we fight and our proclivity to make peace, it changed the way we lead and the way we follow, it made us innovative but not inventive, it created a new kind of social intelligence, and it led to new sources of life satisfaction.
In The Social Leap, William von Hippel lays out this revolutionary hypothesis, tracing human development through three critical evolutionary inflection points to explain how events in our distant past shape our lives today. From the mundane, such as why we exaggerate, to the surprising, such as why we believe our own lies and why fame and fortune are as likely to bring misery as happiness, the implications are far reaching and extraordinary.
Blending anthropology, biology, history, and psychology with evolutionary science, The Social Leap is a fresh and provocative look at our species that provides new clues about who we are, what makes us happy, and how to use this knowledge to improve our lives.
Описание: If you ever wanted to read a book that describes the history of the world, as well as the origin and evolution of humankind in a nutshell, this book is a must-read. We live in an age of information and technology, and everything we want to know about the world-whether it is related to history, philosophy, science or religion-is available at our fingertips. Yet, the more information we have at our fingertips, the more confused we seem to become. The traditional answers to the age-old philosophical questions about who we are, where we came from, and where we are heading; should be reevaluated and redefined in light of the abundance of information available at our fingertips today. This book compiles all the essential information we need to know, in order to reevaluate and redefine our deepest beliefs. The forty chapters of this book provide great insights into the origin and evolution of human civilization, by exploring the most recent scientific theories of our Modern Age. It also explores all the hallmark events of history, and analyzes those events from the point of view of science, religion and the philosophical theories that emerged throughout the ages. Each of the chapters of this book should be viewed as dots on a map that represents the journey of humankind, from the beginning of time till the 21st century. As you read through the various chapters, how you choose to connect the dots is entirely up to you. But no matter how you connect those dots, the lines that you draw should represent a framework for understanding the nature and history of this world, and our place within it.
