Reason, we are told, is what makes us human, the source of our knowledge and wisdom. If reason is so useful, why didn't it also evolve in other animals? If reason is that reliable, why do we produce so much thoroughly reasoned nonsense? In their groundbreaking account of the evolution and workings of reason, Hugo Mercier and Dan Sperber set out to solve this double enigma.

Richard Dawkins considère Le phénotype étendu comme sa contribution la plus importante à la théorie de l'évolution. Dans Le gène égoïste, il avait placé le gène au centre de la sélection naturelle. Les gènes ne se contentent pas de façonner le corps qu'ils habitent. Leur influence s'étend au monde extérieur: dans le barrage du castor, dans la toile de l'araignée, dans le comportement d'un oiseau manipulé par un coucou parasite. Le comportement d'un animal tend à maximiser la survie des gènes responsables de ce comportement, que ces gènes se trouvent ou non dans son propre corps.
