The Nature vs Nurture debate or controversy - Human Psychology

Human Behaviours, Ideas and Feelings Innate OR Learned The Nature Vs Nurture Debate

Most Enduring in the Field of Psychology 17 th Century French Philosopher Rene Descartes : Ideas are in born British Philosophers Thomas Hobbs and John Locke: Experience fully contributes to our behavioural development

Francis Galton English men of Science “their Nature and Nurture” 1874 Influence of genetics and the environment A convenient jingle of words.... Nature is all we bring with ourselves into the world Nurture is every influence that affects us after birth

Galton on Scientific genius – largely nature and inherited Empirical Nurture approach has prevailed since. Has the argument been settled?

Key Insights into General Human Nature Plato Socrates Pythagoras even Shakespeare

Emerson "...man is a bundle of relations, a knot of roots, whose flower and fruitage is the world..."

ARE: Human Beings consciously and unconsciously nurtured by their families, and consciously and unconsciously educated and socialised by their societies, into following socially accepted routes towards living their individual lives as simultaneously materialistic, spiritual, ethnic and intellectual fellow citizens?
