Behavioural scientists have failed to unravel a coherent evolution and system of behaviour. It is a failure that hinders our understanding of ourselves, of others and of our dysfunctions.

Behavioural scientists have failed to unravel a coherent evolution and system of behaviour. It is a failure that hinders our understanding of ourselves, of others and of our dysfunctions. Homo Imperfectus is a personal endeavour to correct this failure; it is the result of decades of research and reflection. Every organism engages in behaviour which registers change, evaluates it and decides on a response. The behavioural system arose from a simple polarisation of change, and of response. Through millennia of evolution, it eventually arrived at our complex, but fragile, human neuro-psychology. The almost accidental explosion of human intelligence creates an overload of our vital decision-making hub, predisposing it to disorder and the irreparable damage of schizophrenia. It is not a disorder of our biochemistry, of our physiology, but of how we conduct our lives.
Autorenporträt
Robert Bugler began his career in front line care of anxiety and depression in general practice. On changing course to child psychiatry, it dawned on him that unlike dramatic advances in medicine and surgery, psychiatry was hardly making any progress. He set out to identify basic behavioural phenomena and a logical system in the hope of urging the profession to move on from their present beliefs and assumptions. He ended his career privileged and inspired to be working at Sheffield Children's University Teaching Hospital.
