From the temptation of Eve to the venomous murder of the mighty Thor, the serpent appears throughout time and cultures as a figure of mischief and misery. The worldwide prominence of snakes in religion, myth, and folklore underscores our deep connection to the serpent but why, when so few of us have firsthand experience? The surprising answer, this book suggests, lies in t..more

Yesterday I picked up this book without knowing fully what to expect. I've had it recommended to me twice the past month; once through a forum on cognitive psychology and once in relation to Joseph Campbells 'The Power of Myth'. From the recommendations and the cover of the book itself I expected it to be a reading of mythology through the eyes of an evolutionary biologist. But what met me was something different yet more fascinating. This is not popular science literature, it is scientific writ..more
Recommends it for: neuroscientists; evolution biologists; those who can handle specific language from these fields

If I had to write 100 insignificant facts about myself, one of them would be 'I can't walk past the new books shelf in the university library. I always come back with at least three, and usually take all of them home.'
I had to pick up this one because of its title. I thought it's something on mythology. But as soon as I opened it, I realized that it's nothing I expected it to be yet I had to read enough of it to get the idea.

Pet hypothesis, much??? There's a decent overview of general neuroscience, but other than that this woman is a total cherry picker.
An insightful read, though quite dense at times. Isbell is fairly convincing at points, as she delves into a number of areas from neurobiology to anthropology to prove her point. Much of it is out of my area of learning. However, she is convincing, and certainly there is possibility that it holds true. There are many assumptions held by Isbell, but none of those assumptions are convincingly false.

Excellent evolutionary argument about a crucial aspect of humanity, our vision. The idea of our vision being a part of an arms race with snakes is extremely fascinating, and the book makes the case in great detail. This is a very worthwhile read.

Super técnico, se lee como una tesis no como un libro de divulgación, aprendí mucho y hubiera aprendido más de saber a lo que me enfrentaba: lo hubiera leído en la casa tomando notas!

Serpent, Adam, Eve, Fruit, Vision, as God, in new light. Dense!
Beginning by asking why primates in areas with fewer or no venomous snakes developed differently than those who lived in the Old World, Isbell examines how the need to deal with snakes shaped arboreal primates by selecting for depth perception, an ability to see through camouflage,and particular neural pathways allowing for fast responses to danger. This is an engaging opening for looking at the effects of this on modern humans, who much more rarely deal with snakes, but have encoded them into o..more
Very interesting perspective on the evolution of human vision. I highly recommend for anyone interested in evolution, human anatomy, snakes, or anyone even afraid of snakes.. this book sheds understanding on why we are afraid of snakes and offers a hypothesis on how it has shaped the evolution of our vision.
Excellent science review of describing a researcher's work, written by the researcher. Besides understanding how vision may have evolved, this book is a good introduction of how difficult evolutionary biology can be and the complexities of science and hypothesis testing of things that happened in the past.
interesting review in The Atlantic

Verses 2, 3. - And the woman said unto the serpent. Neither afraid of the reptile, there being not yet any enmity among the creatures; nor astonished at his speaking, perhaps as being not yet fully acquainted with the capabilities of the lower animals; nor suspicions of his designs, her innocence and inexperience not predisposing her to apprehend danger. Yet the tenor of the reptile's interrogation was fitted to excite alarm; and if, as some conjecture, she understood that Satan was the speaker, she should at once have taken flight; while, if she knew nothing of him or his disposition, she should not have opened herself so freely to a person unknown. 'The woman certainly discovers some uuadvisedness in entertaining conference with the serpent, in matters of so great importance, in so familiar a manner' (White). We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden.
(1) Omitting the Divine name when recording his liberality, though she remembers it when reciting his restraint;
(2) failing to do justice to the largeness and freeness of the Divine grant (cf. with Genesis 2:16); - which, however, charity would do well not to press against the woman as symptoms of incipient rebellion. But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it. An addition to the prohibitory enactment, which may have been simply an inaccuracy in her understanding of Adam's report of its exact terms (Kalisch); or the result of a rising feeling of dissatisfaction with the too great strictness of the prohibition (Delitzsch), and so an indication 'that her love and confidence towards God were already beginning to waver' (Keil); or a proof of her anxiety to observe the Divine precept (Calvin); or a statement of her understanding 'that they were not to meddle with it as a forbidden thing' (Murphy). Lest ye die. Even Calvin here admits that Eve begins to give way, leading פֶן־ as

(1) the conjunction may point to a consequence which is certain - indeed this is its usual meaning (cf. Genesis 11:4; Genesis 19:5; Psalm 2:12);
(2) Where there are so many real grounds for condemning Eve's conduct, it is our duty to be cautious in giving those which are problematical' (Bush); and,
(3) 'she would have represented the penalty in a worse rather than a softened form had she begun to think it unjust' (Inglis). 3:1-5 Satan assaulted our first parents, to draw them to sin, and the temptation proved fatal to them. The tempter was the devil, in the shape and likeness of a serpent. Satan's plan was to draw our first parents to sin, and so to separate between them and their God. Thus the devil was from the beginning a murderer, and the great mischief maker. The person tempted was the woman: it was Satan's policy to enter into talk with her when she was alone. There are many temptations to which being alone gives great advantage; but the communion of saints tends very much to their strength and safety. Satan took advantage by finding her near the forbidden tree. They that would not eat the forbidden fruit, must not come near the forbidden tree. Satan tempted Eve, that by her he might tempt Adam. It is his policy to send temptations by hands we do not suspect, and by those that have most influence upon us. Satan questioned whether it were a sin or not, to eat of this tree. He did not disclose his design at first, but he put a question which seemed innocent. Those who would be safe, need to be shy of talking with the tempter. He quoted the command wrong. He spoke in a taunting way. The devil, as he is a liar, so he is a scoffer from the beginning; and scoffers are his children. It is the craft of Satan to speak of the Divine law as uncertain or unreasonable, and so to draw people to sin; it is our wisdom to keep up a firm belief of God's command, and a high respect for it. Has God said, Ye shall not lie, nor take his name in vain, nor be drunk, etc.? Yes, I am sure he has, and it is well said; and by his grace I will abide by it. It was Eve's weakness to enter into this talk with the serpent: she might have perceived by his question, that he had no good design, and should therefore have started back. Satan teaches men first to doubt, and then to deny. He promises advantage from their eating this fruit. He aims to make them discontented with their present state, as if it were not so good as it might be, and should be. No condition will of itself bring content, unless the mind be brought to it. He tempts them to seek preferment, as if they were fit to be gods. Satan ruined himself by desiring to be like the Most High, therefore he sought to infect our first parents with the same desire, that he might ruin them too. And still the devil draws people into his interest, by suggesting to them hard thoughts of God, and false hopes of advantage by sin. Let us, therefore, always think well of God as the best good, and think ill of sin as the worst evil: thus let us resist the devil, and he will flee from us.EatFruitGardenSerpentTrees
