Anthropological Research

The Origin of Species
by Charles Darwin—explains the origin of species and how species change through the process of natural selection.

Our Inner Ape
by Frans de Waal—Man’s brutal instincts are often paralleled to the chimpanzee, but de Waal asserts that perhaps we share some of our noblest qualities—such as generosity, kindness, and altruism—with the conciliatory bonobo.

Through a Window
by Jane Goodall—a provocative book about animal behavior and the roots of human behavior.

The Naked Ape by Desmond Morris—Author Morris ties man back to the animal kingdom, and explains how our most basic behavior is deeply embedded in our primate roots.
