Book review The naked ape - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog

Book review The naked ape - The Chief Happiness Officer Blog The naked ape is a classic. Its about humans, but its written by a zoologist, who treats us as just another type of ape. The premise is this: If you took the skin of one of each species of primate and examined them closely, theres one that would stick out the human. Were not covered in hair, hence the naked ape. He then goes on to describe the myriad ways in which we resemble apes, physically, psycologically, socially, sexually, etc. Its brilliant stuff. It reminds me of a question asked in Douglas Couplands Generation X: What animal would you be, if you were an animal? Answer: You already are an animal. Thanks for visiting my blog.
