Abstract

Applying evolutionary theory to behavior and mental life allows a deeper understanding and a better integration of their normal and pathological functions. This paper presents some critical aspects of cultural ethology and evolutionary psychology that converge to a wider and more articulated appreciation of psychopathology and clinical psychology. Incest avoidance is analysed both in its biological, cultural, social and psychological dimensions.
