At our last TF meeting on April 24th Dr. A.S.Amin gave a talk about his recently published book “Conflicts of Interest: Islam, America and Evolutionary Psychology”.  We await a concise summary of his talk for those who could not attend. Somehow, his book got noticed by a Frenchman who writes a blog about evolutionary psychology. He then has written an extensive review of one of the topics in the book. Attaching the link to that blog. Even people who could not attend the TF meeting will find it interesting.  Editor

XXXVI The Evolutionary Roots of the Clash of Civilizations

The relationships between Islam and the West have been hotly discussed for decades. Milestones in this debate have been books such as The End of History and the Last Man by Francis Fukuyama (1992), Jihad vs McWorld by Benjamin Barber (1995), The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order by Samuel Huntington (1996). In his work Conflicts of Fitness: Islam, America, and Evolutionary Psychology (2015), Dr A.S. Amin (MD) brings new insights in the discussion by making fruitful use of the findings of evolutionary psychology (EP), and I will review his ideas at some length while broaching the evolutionary roots of the clash of civilizations.
