Throughout history, we humans have prided ourselves on our
capacity to have ideas, but perhaps this pride is misplaced. Perhaps
ideas have us. In this book, science writer and documentary filmmaker
Jonnie Hughes investigates the evolution of ideas, taking a look at how
they seem to have lives of their own. Adopting the role of a cultural
Charles Darwin, Hughes travels across the Midwest with his brother to
observe firsthand the natural history of ideas—the patterns of their
variation, inheritance, and selection in the cultural landscape. In
place of Darwin’s oceanic islands, Hughes visits the “mind islands” of
Native American tribes. Instead of finches, Hughes searches for signs of
natural selection among the tepees.
With a knack for finding
the humor in the quirks of the American cultural landscape, Hughes takes
us on a tour from the Mall of America in Minneapolis to what he calls
the “maul” of America—Custer’s last stand—stopping at roadsides and
discoursing on sandwiches, the shape of cowboy hats, the evolution of
barn roofs, and more. Original, witty, and engaging,On the Origin of Tepeesoffers a fresh way of understanding both our ideas and ourselves.
