Is it true that there are "modules" of specialized "software" that handle very specific behaviours in our brains?
Was looking uo on evolutionary psychology. I had read some oliver sacks and antonio damasio's books (descartes' error), so the foundational argument of evopsy being that many of our cognitive and behavioural capacities are handled by ultraspecialized neural networks acting as some kind of software didnt bug me, but I realize that there is no evopsy without this, so I wanted to know more but I dont know where to look, I'm just a curious muggle in biology.
I know evopsy is really controversial, so I'm just asking about that one aspect.
Thank you all.
