Kerr","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book introduces a new concept of liberty, based on the idea that being free means being the humans we evolved to be in our first 200,000 years. With perspectives from psychology, anthropology, and sociology, the author shows how throughout history, dominant individuals and status hierarchies have injured our psychological and physical well-being. Readers discover simple behaviours that make humans feel free (like gossiping, playing, making, and storytelling) and are prompted to reflect on threats to this freedom.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Psychology of Liberty\u003c\/em\u003e explores the dynamics of creative families, communities, and societies, showing how they sustain human freedom.
