Reading Peter Singer on A Darwinian Left

I'm rereading Peter Singer's A Darwinian Left:  Politics, Evolution and Cooperation.  It's an old book (2000), but I find it a provocative little essay to help rethink the Marxist view of human nature.  Can we evolve to be more cooperative?  Are Darwinism and Marxism compatible?  This is a wonderful little book for discussion groups.
