Pan troglodytes‚ Pan Paniscus‚ and Homo sapiens or more commonly referred to as Chimpanzees‚ Bonobos‚ and Humans have unbelievably similar biological traits that one could invoke philosophical reflection of our origin and evolution. Highly intelligent‚ social‚ vocalized‚ animals that share a taxonomic group with Homo sapiens: a tribe. But where do we draw the line? How do we define these primates as different species even at a 98% gene proportion? Are these creatures analogous to each other to the

Modern psychology is defined as many subject areas within psychology‚ examples including either biological or cognitive psychology (Schultz and Schultz 2012). Such subjects have little in common except for their broad interest in human behaviour. However‚ a framework which binds these approaches is their history. By exploring the history of psychology it is possible to see the nature of psychology in the modern day (Schultz and Schultz 2012). It is also important to consider the influence of philosophy

In the debate regarding the utility of non-human animals and their relation to the human kind‚ I’m inclined to follow Steinbock’s lead. Analyzing Singer’s argument‚ it seems to me that he occasionally contradicts his own expressed beliefs‚ hence making his position somewhat illogical and not as convincing. For instance‚ Singer supposes that "the basic principle of equality does not require equal or identical treatment; it requires equal consideration." Later he follows this idea by asserting that

A World of Unbalance David Suzuki’s A Sacred Balance and Al Gore’s A Climate Emergency both outline the detrimental ways in which technology‚ population growth‚ and our way of living have begun to and will continue to destroy our diverse ecosystem. However‚ the outlooks that these two environmental giants have on man’s role in the world are perfectly opposite. “There is no environment ‘out there‚’” urges Suzuki‚ “we are born of the earth and constructed from the four sacred elements of earth
