The Good Samaritan--some biologists claim--is constitutionally (=genetically) unable to act for the victim's sake. There must be a self-interested account; the Samaritan, deceived about his motives, is rewarded with reproductively profitable reputation. But such behavior, praised and imitated, jumps genetic lines and there is no differential survival advantage.58 minutes 58 secondsborn digitalmotion pictures (visual works)digital moving image formatsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
