My copy of the book "Not by Genes Alone: How Culture Transformed
Human Evolution" just arrived, and I have quickly skimmed through it.

My initial impressions are that the book is well-done, thorough (30 pages of
references cited for 315 pgs of text), and very interesting. The book
presents a Darwinian analysis of the impact of culture on evolution.
The pro-raw pseudoscience frauds blatantly lie about the
culture-evolution linkage, calling it Lamarckism. This book shows
the pseudoscience types for the ignorant liars they are.

PS I love the title of chapter 4: "Culture is an adaptation".
Also chapter 6: "Culture and genes coevolve".  :-)
