Desmond Morris – Intimate Behaviour – First Edition 1971
£40.00
A first edition, first printing published by Cape in 1971. A very good book (small previous owner’s sticker to front endpaper), in a rather aggressively clipped dust wrapper with fading to the spine.
Desmond Morris, a prominent zoologist and ethologist, explored human behaviour in his groundbreaking book “Intimate Behaviour.” He delved into the intricate dynamics of human interactions, focusing on intimate gestures, body language, and social rituals. Morris dissected the subtleties of courtship, affection, and sexual behaviour, drawing parallels between human behaviour and that of other animals. His work shed light on the evolutionary roots of intimate behaviour, revealing how instinctual drives and societal norms shape our interactions. Through meticulous observation and analysis, Morris offered profound insights into the complex tapestry of human intimacy, enriching our understanding of interpersonal relationships and social dynamics.
