Some of them even anticipate the coming of afield called "mismatch theory", which would study maladies resulting from contrasts between themodern environment and the "ancestral environment". The one we were designed for.5 There is no shortage of such maladies to study, Rates of depression have been doubling in someindustrial countries roughly every 10 years. Suicide is the third most common cause of death amongyoung adults, after car wrecks and homicides.Evolutionary psychology is a long way from explaining all this with precision, but it is alreadyshedding enough 10 light to challenges some conventional wisdom. It suggests, for example, that thenostalgia for the nuclear family of the 1950s is in some way misguided - that the model family ofhusband at work and wife at home is hardly a "natural" and healthful living arrangement, especiallyfor the wives. Moreover, the bygone lifestyles that do look fairly natural in light of evolutionarypsychology appear to have been eroded largely by commercialism. Perhaps the biggest surprise fromevolutionary psychology it its depiction of the "animal" in us. Freud, and 15 various thinkers since, saw "civilization" as an oppressive force that thwarts basic animal instinctsand urges and transmutes them into psychopathology. However, evolutionary psychology suggeststhat a larger threat to metal health may be the way civilization thwarts civility. There is a gentler,kinder side of human nature, and it seems increasingly to be a victim of repression in modern society.
