Chimpanzee
Politics - The first edition of Frans de Waal's Chimpanzee
Politics was acclaimed not only by primatologists for its
scientific achievement but also by a much broader audience
of politicians, business leaders, and social psychologists
for its remarkable insights into very basic human needs and
behaviors. In this revised edition—featuring a new gallery
of color photographs along with a new introduction and epilogue—de
Waal expands and updates his story of the Arnhem colony and
its continuing political upheavals. We learn the fate of many
memorable chimpanzees and meet the colony's current leaders
and their allies. The new edition remains a detailed and thoroughly
engrossing account—of sexual rivalries and coalitions, of
actions governed by intelligence rather than instinct—and
it reaffirms the complex bond between humans and their closest
living relatives. As we watch the chimpanzees of Arnhem behave
in ways we recognize from Machiavelli (and from the nightly
news), de Waal reminds us again that the roots of politics
are older than humanity. |

catch animals in certain acts is to wonder what moves them.
Might there he a code of ethics in the animal kingdom? Must
an animal be human to he humane? In this provocative book,
a renowned scientist takes on those who have declared ethics
uniquely human Making a compelling case for a morality grounded
in biology, he shows how ethical behavior is as much a matter
of evolution as any other trait, in humans and animals alike.
