Teneri Carnivori. Cacciatori e selvaggina sacra

Abstract

In this visionary and inspired book, anthropologist and primatologist Paul Shepard offers to the reader a different image of ours species and its long ecological journey, from the palaeolithic hunter-gatherers to the crisis of modernity. His idea is that "we are who we were": our biological, cognitive and behavioral structures have evolved to respond to a natural environment that today no longer exists.
