Why did intelligence explode in only ONE species? The answer has eluded science—until now.
The Curiosity Gene completes the picture first painted by Darwin himself, tracing curiosity to its violent birth amid primate warfare and revealing it as the missing link behind a 2.3-million-year march from ape to human.
That ancient drive is still with us, and understanding its origin gives us a gift. The troubles of a modern life despite unprecedented abundance and comfort—anxiety, restlessness, frustration, and conflict—suddenly swim into focus through a new lens, revealing why true, meaningful happiness cannot be chased. It must be earned.
