Explaining Humans.
Camilla\'s unique perspective of the world, in turn, tells us so much about ourselves - about who we are and why we do it - and is a fascinating guide on how to lead a more connected, happier life..
Explaining Humans is an original and incisive exploration of human nature and the strangeness of social norms, written from the outside looking in.
Through a set of scientific principles, this book examines life\'s everyday interactions including: &bull
Decisions and the route we take to make them; &bull
Conflict and how we can avoid it; &bull
Relationships and how we establish them; &bull
Etiquette and how we conform to it.
Now armed with a PhD in biochemistry, Camilla dismantles our obscure social customs and identifies what it really means to be human using her unique expertise and a language she knows best: science.
But, without the blueprint to life she was hoping for, Camilla began to create her own.
Desperate for a solution, Camilla asked her mother if there was an instruction manual for Humans that she could consult.
