Different : gender through the eyes of a primatologist

Waal, F. B. M. de 1948-

Synopsis:

An examination of our closest animal relatives, chimpanzees and bonobos, and how important sex roles are to their species.  De Waal’s conclusion asserts that biology does play a role in our behavior but so does nurture and/or culture, and the two can interact in deliberate ways. Biology is not destiny but does have some influence on human behavior.
