In this episode of Inquiring Minds, Indre Viscontis sits down with Peter Godfrey-Smith, Professor of History and Philosophy of Science at the University of Sydney and author of Living on Earth: Forests, Corals, Consciousness, and the Making of the World.Peter takes us on an enthralling journey through the evolution of culture and its impact on consciousness and society. Together they explore the crucial role culture plays in human development, especially how children absorb behaviors from their communities, the intriguing culture-like behaviors of non-human animals such as bowerbirds creating elaborate displays, and how various species, especially human behavior, shape their environments.Join us for a thought-provoking conversation about how living beings influence the Earth's evolutionary history and how our evolutionary standing as humans should not dictate specific choices for the future.Links:Inquiring Minds Homepage: https://inquiring.show/Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/inquiringmindsSee https://omnystudio.com/policies/listener for privacy informationPeter Godfrey-Smith Website: https://petergodfreysmith.com/Peter Godfrey-Smith Book <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Living-Earth-Forests-Corals-Consciousness/dp/0374189935/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=AUTHOR&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.ThvRrMIzUh_ojtONW7nfLKAl28WJgCsVsqx27LpF7Zt05TVbKNsbV6DQA1XOJoFPjW-ws45yD4ecrBEUHwf4Kk5sX5M0AqYurx9QX5uof0G4HUeB1M3wuHQjfMLs7Pe-Ht7eExGuJPUF73Rz2yVD7Fm7WftLCsphLSy1xXxJzwkelkqpX5UYUyOh8DU1WuOrdCoyuZaatH9-c_7EjIwRs0n17gw7E2sWs6uZu0qazZo.YVDjyLhP6gVUAPPCKHuLNHE7CE9S1J2JfC2ToE408cQ&qid=&sr=">Living on Earth: </a>
