There is an interesting – though very speculative and somewhat rambling – article entitled ‘Why We Invented Monsters’ over at Salon. People familiar with this blog may find it to be an enjoyable, if unusual, read. It’s not really scientific (despite its pretensions), but certainly grist for a chat over a few pints…
Interesting. Thanks for the link. As you say, it's not really scientific, but at its core are some reasonable assumptions, I think, if maybe it runs with them a bit fancifully.
