About this work

Description

Professor Richard Kass, University of California, is the author of a report in the current edition of New Scientist which suggests that our phobias, may be inherited from our human ancestors, who were prey to a range of natural predators. Prof. Paul Salkovskis, Centre for Anxiety Disorders and Trauma, Maudsley Hospital, London, argues, that this is a hypothesis which is almost impossible to prove. He says that humans have no inate fears, and that those we do have, are acquired between the ages of three and eight years of age.
