Man and Monkey presents a provocative and unsettling reappraisal of humanity through the lens of our closest biological relatives, challenging comfortable assumptions about intelligence, society, and the nature of civilisation itself. Drawing on zoology, anthropology, and behavioural science, Leonard Williams constructs a compelling argument that the line between man and monkey is far thinner — and far more troubling — than modern society cares to admit.\n\nRichly illustrated and written with sharp wit and disarming clarity, this work sits at the crossroads of natural history and social commentary, using primate behaviour as a mirror held unflinchingly up to human culture. Williams brings a rare intimacy to his subject, informed by years of direct experience with primates, lending the text an authority that is both scientific and deeply personal. A book that provokes as much as it informs, Man and Monkey leaves the reader with one quietly unsettling question: are we really more than a naked ape — or less?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49216197460187,"sku":"2026200014457-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/38d11aa7-ac75-46fc-8c56-fc903846792e.png?v=1788405111","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014457-secondhand-man-and-monkey","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
