First edition of this work, which examines how the biological nature of the human species has shaped the character of the cultures of the contemporary world. Octavo, original cloth. Boldly signed by Desmond Morris on the title page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket, small name.
The Human Zoo concerns the city dweller. Morris finds remarkable similarities with captive zoo animals and looks closely at the aggressive, sexual and parental behavior of the human species under the stresses and pressures of urban living.
