«El mono desnudo» is an anthropology essay by Desmond Morris, published by Plaza & Janés in paperback (272 pages, in Spanish).
The book approaches human behaviour as that of just another animal species, from a biological and evolutionary perspective. Desmond Morris reviews the primate origins of human beings and analyses sex, child-rearing, feeding, aggression and communication, while the title refers to the zoological idea of a hairless primate: the «mono desnudo».
The book is the first volume of the trilogy The Naked Ape; the translation is by José Ferrer Aleu.
Audience interested in popular science and human behaviour.
