El trabajo de Barbara se comenta en esta clase.

[Cedar]

One of the few books I bought for a college class that was good enough to keep. Also the author's name is "Smuts" which just works so well given the topic. Certainly the books is thought provoking, and tends to reinforce my tendency to think of human behavior as animal behavior.

probably the best sociobiology book I've ever read.
