Human Intelligence is Social
Human Beings have been evolving as social beings for millions of years.Although we share social instincts with many other species, our language and cognitive ability have evolved in ways that have lead to us being the globe's dominant species. Our social psychology is tribally based. Our language abstracts from the limits of time and concrete activity that characterize material reality. As a result, we communicate with one another in ways that abstract from material reality. As a result, we have become a contracting, problem solving, and collaborative species that can move beyond our genetically encoded instincts.
