Martin</b></i><br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <i>Here Am I -- Where Are You?: The Behavior of the Greylag Goose</i> was thought to be Konrad Lorenz's last book. However, in 1991 the "Russian Manuscript" was discovered in an attic and its subsequent publication in German has become a scientific sensation. Written under the most extreme conditions in Soviet prison camps, the "Russian Manuscript" was the first outline of a large-scale work on behavioral science. This translation, meticulously edited by his daughter, Agnes von Cranach, contains a synopsis of all the ideas that made Lorenz famous as the founder of ethology, the study of comparative animal behavior.<br /> <br /> The "Russian Manuscript" was originally planned in 1944 as the first segment of an extended work when the author was Professor of Psychology in Konigsberg. After the war ended, Lorenz, then a prisoner, wrote this first part in Russian camps near Kirov and Yerevan. Later he was allowed to take the manuscript -- written on paper sacks and other fragments -- back to Austria, where he used it as the basis for such major publications as <i>Behind the Mirror: A Search for a Natural History of Human Knowledge</i>. In 1963-64, the manuscript disappeared, much to Lorenz's distress, and was not recovered until nearly two years after his death. 922711 17 11 1995 The Natural Science of the Human Species: An Introduction to Comparative Behavioral Research: The total:2|5:2| 2 10 4 0 0 0 false false Mon Apr 20 20:36:13 -0700 2009 Mon Apr 20 20:36:13 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Thu Feb 05 08:39:57 -0800 2009 Thu Feb 05 08:40:03 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 14 00:00:00 -0700 1980 Mon Feb 02 03:10:37 -0800 2009 Mon Feb 02 03:14:22 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Thu Apr 24 07:42:57 -0700 2008 Thu Apr 24 07:42:57 -0700 2008 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=937734
