According to Evolutionary Psychology (EP), the brain is an organ whose modular capacities have been selected for because they provided advantages of survival in the course of evolution. Consciousness as well as cognitive, behavioural and social abilities are seen as the results of specific reactions to evolutionary pressures, which have shaped humans and their ancestors over millions of years: Natural selection shapes domain-specific mechanisms so that their structure meshes with§the evolutionarily stable features of their particular problem domains.§Understanding the evolutionarily stable feature of problem domains and what selection favored as a solution under ancestral conditions illuminates the design of cognitive specializations. In this book, Epistemological Foundations of Evolutionary Psychology, the philosophical premises and problems of this scientific paradigm is addressed are order to critically assess the status of EP in the contemporary interdisciplinary field of the cognitive and life sciences.§
