From Primates to Politicians is a fascinating exploration of politicians and their atavistic origins, traced back to the animal side of the human species. Based on our evolution, the book explains the reason for many human behaviors and the often-deadly scramble for the resources we perceive as necessary for survival. Juan Manuel Munoz explores the bowels of politics-a profession understood and dominated by economic power elites and the expert manipulators of political marketing, who assemble the mercurial puzzle of infinite distortions to which we have become habituated. The content is divided into three parts; in the first, the author reviews the concepts of primatology, evolution, and the power relations between living beings; in the second, the evolution of human societies and the foundations of conservatism and liberalism, are unpacked, which leads him to propose his "evolutionary theory of politics". The book closes with the analysis of multiple current events and raises some predictions about the global political environment.
