The Naked Ape
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Naked Ape: A Zoologist's Study of the Human Animal (ISBN 0-385-33430-3) is a book by Desmond Morris which looks at humans as a species and compares them to other animals. It depicts human behavior as partially evolved to meet the challenges of prehistoric life as a hunter-gatherer (see nature versus nurture).
A 1973 movie directed by Donald Driver — based on the book — was made starring Johnny Crawford and Victoria Principal.
