I've read Behave, and now I've listened to this summary.

Summarizing all content in that very long and thorough book in 30 minutes is not just difficult, it's impossible.

There are a few parts left untouched in the summary, but it does hit most of the highlights. For instance, there is no mention of the neural streamlining due to the ways calories are sourced, which is the ultimate predictor of "individualist" vs "collectivist" personality types, as well as inland traders, the xenophobic pastoral farmers, coastal fishing groups, etc.

Anyone looking to understand the mysteries of human behavior in more detail should tackle the full volume.

Sufficient summary, impossible task.
