ARMS, WORDS AND THE MAN

on Third Programme

by W. M. S. Russell
In his book African Genesis, Robert Ardrey concludes that man is irrevocably warlike. On Thursday of last week Dr. Michael Chance discussed some of the evidence which led Ardrey to this position. Tonight Dr. W. M. S. Russell , ethologist and co-author of Human Behaviour, A New Approach, ascribes Ardrey's view to a static picture of human behaviour, and gives an evolutionary answer.
