Darwin and sexual selection: One hundred years of misunderstanding
C R Biol 333(2):12 (2010) PMID 20338531
Darwin's book on the Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex (1871) is often viewed as the continuation of The Origin of Species published 12 years earlier (1859), both because of the implicit parallelism between natural selection and sexual selection, and because Darwin himself presents the... -
Darwin's puzzling Expression
C R Biol 333(2):7 (2010) PMID 20338535
Charles Darwin's The Expression of the Emotions in Man and Animals (1872) is a very different kind of work from On the Origin of Species (1859). This "otherness" is most extreme in the character of the explanations that Darwin offers in the Expression. Far from promoting his theory of natural select... -
Darwin on woman
C R Biol 333(2):9 (2010) PMID 20338532
In his 1871 book The Descent of Man, Darwin exposed the idea of sexual selection as a major principle of human evolution. His main hypothesis, which was already briefly presented in The Origin of Species, is that there exists, besides "natural selection", another form of selection, milder in its eff... -
Altruism and fairness: Unnatural selection?
C R Biol 333(2):7 (2010) PMID 20338534
We explore the extent to which sexual selection has played a role in the appearance of human moral traits. It has been suggested that because certain moral virtues, including altruism and kindness, are sexually attractive, their evolution could have been shaped by the process of sexual selection. Ou... -

Ancestral monogamy shows kin selection is key to the evolution of eusociality.
Science 320(5880):1213-6 (2008) PMID 18511689
We tested this idea with a comparative analysis of female mating frequencies in 267 species of eusocial bees, wasps, and ants. We found that mating with a single male, which maximizes relatedness, is ancestral for all eight independent eusocial lineages that we investigated. Mating with multiple mal... -
Evolution theory: an overview of its applications in psychiatry.
Psychopathology 41(1):17-27 (2008) PMID 17952017
Evolution is a pivotal concept in biology with relevant applications in psychiatry. We suggest encouraging the interaction between psychiatric educators and researchers in evolutionary psychiatry and biology in order to improve the education of psychiatric residents in this subject.
