In The Human Animal: The Mystery of Man's Behaviour, pioneering biologist and underwater explorer Hans Hass turns his naturalist's eye inward, applying the rigorous principles of ethology and evolutionary biology to unravel the deep biological roots of human conduct. Drawing on his landmark field observations and cross-disciplinary research, Hass argues that mankind, for all its civilization and reason, remains fundamentally bound by the same instinctual drives that govern the animal kingdom — from aggression and territoriality to cooperation and social bonding.\n\nWritten with the authority of a scientist and the curiosity of an explorer, this work sits at a compelling crossroads between zoology, psychology, and philosophy. Hass presents a bold, unflinching portrait of homo sapiens as a species still governed by ancient biological imperatives, challenging readers to confront the uncomfortable gap between who we think we are and what we truly are. Published by the prestigious Hodder and Stoughton, this volume remains a thought-provoking touchstone in the study of human nature — one that leaves the reader questioning every instinct they thought they understood.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49131000004827,"sku":"2026200009679-SECONDHAND","price":160.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c1a4fbe1-b977-4e34-8470-8d53c525395a.png?v=1786594194","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200009679-secondhand-the-human-animal-the-mystery-of-mans-behaviour","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
