520    We're all hypocrites. Why? Hypocrisy is the natural state 
       of the human mind. Robert Kurzban shows us that the key to
       understanding our behavioral inconsistencies lies in 
       understanding the mind's design. The human mind consists 
       of many specialized units designed by the process of 
       evolution by natural selection. While these modules 
       sometimes work together seamlessly, they don't always, 
       resulting in impossibly contradictory beliefs, 
       vacillations between patience and impulsiveness, 
       violations of our supposed moral principles, and 
       overinflated views of ourselves. This modular, 
       evolutionary psychological view of the mind undermines 
       deeply held intuitions about ourselves, as well as a range
       of scientific theories that require a "self" with 
       consistent beliefs and preferences. Modularity suggests 
       that there is no "I." Instead, each of us is a contentious
       "we"--A collection of discrete but interacting systems 
       whose constant conflicts shape our interactions with one 
       another and our experience of the world. In clear language,
       full of wit and rich in examples, Kurzban explains the 
       roots and implications of our inconsistent minds, and why 
       it is perfectly natural to believe that everyone else is a
       hypocrite.
