«El zoo humano» is the popular science essay by Desmond Morris, published by RBA Coleccionables in hardback (206 pages, in Spanish).
Desmond Morris compares the big city to a human zoo: the urban environment conditions our behaviour just as captivity conditions animals. The essay addresses the mismatch between our biological heritage, formed over more than a million years, and the ways of life imposed by modern civilisation.
The edition belongs to the Biblioteca de Divulgación Científica collection (no. 38), according to the abeBooks record.
For readers interested in popular science and in the influence of urban life on human behaviour.
Desmond John Morris FLS hon. caus. was an English zoologist, ethologist and surrealist painter, as well as a popular author in human sociobiology. He was known for his 1967 book The Naked Ape, and for his television programmes such as Zoo Time.
