Description
A landmark work of popular science, The Naked Ape reframed human behavior through the lens of zoology and evolutionary biology, becoming an international bestseller and a cultural touchstone of the late 20th century. Morris’s provocative yet accessible approach challenged readers to reconsider social behavior, sexuality, and culture as extensions of our animal origins.
