ExACTly!!! I honestly read through the whole thing waiting for TEH RIGOR to kick in - because clearly they *had* all the data! .....and then the book ends. I was like, "This was the introduction to the best thesis of all time you guys!"
Okay, I totally understand that they had to publish the book that would sell. I get the realities of the market. But now I want them to publish the companion volume with The Hardcore Research!! Cause I WOULD EAT THAT WITH A SPOON. :)
It's also a pretty snotty bitchslap to evolutionary psychology which, well, yes.
rofl!!! Yes, yes indeed. They didn't quite camouflage their titters at the expense of evolutionary psychology, anthropology or biology that ever ever suddenly contradicted itself when the researcher came smack up against his/her own prejudices :P
