Thanks. Having the title was enough to find the post. I turned out to be looking in the wrong place. The comment was on SSC, not LW—which I find amusing given that you were the one to respond.
The book is irritatingly expensive. I might read The Moral Animal instead. Both seem to be widely recommended around here. Searching on the former consistently turns up the latter as well, often in the same breath.
Motivation: I noticed that I can’t distinguish between just-so stories and genuine evopsych insights. I think seeing a known example of it being done right might help fix that.
