Description
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Detta är en fantastisk dokumentärserie om människan i sex delar. En kommentar
från imdb är tex:

"This is one the best documentary ever made. This should be watched by all
teenagers to get a good understanding of people behavior. It makes one feel
part of nature, not "superior" or ruling nature. I enjoyed it very much."

The Human Animal by Desmond Morris (who also wrote "The Naked Ape") which
accompanies a major six-part series, shows that, however much we may think we
have evolved from our animal ancestors, our instincts and behaviour are still
rooted in our animal past. By denying this inheritance we are in danger of
destroying everything we have strived so hard to create.


Despite the different skin colours, beliefs and rituals to be found in the
5000 million human beings alive today, we actually all share an almost
identical genetic heritage. In this portrait of the human species, Desmond
Morris takes us right to the centre of human existence and explores all
aspects of human life and behaviour. From the way we rear our young to the
common use of certain facial gestures, he covers a fascinating variety of
subjects: how our hunting instincts have been channelled into an
extraordinary range of sporting activities; how the modern art world can
trace its roots back to an early primate picking up a stone resembling a
face; how different courtship rituals across the world reflect the universal
emotion of love.


Desmond Morris also looks at some of the damaging consequences that can be
seen when we try to deny our animal heritage: how territorial fights erupt
when the tribal systems within our overcrowded cities break down, and how
human relationships disintegrate when natural social or sexual patterns
change.


Both candid and entertaining, Desmond Morris exposes our foibles,
celebrates our triumphs and gives us a new understanding of the way we
behave. A world-renowned zoologist, he has already fundamentally changed the
way we perceive ourselves. Now The Human Animal takes us one step closer to
confronting our true identity.

Part 2:

The Hunting Ape
This episode looks at our most fundamental activity - finding food, examining
how humans exploit even the most inhospitable environments, and analysing how
our origins as hunter-gatherers manifest themselves in the fast-food culture
of the modern world.

I serien får man alltså en Zoologs perspektiv på människan. Det vill säga se
oss människor som det djur som vi ju faktiskt alla är.

Serien har gått på svensk TV en gång förut och jag satt som förtrollad och
tittade.

Filen har två ljudspår. Ett spanskt som är default tyvärr. Men också ett
engelskt. Fås lätt fram i spelaren VLC genom att ändra ljudspår från spår 1
till spår 2.


Change audio track from spanish to english if you prefer english. This is
done easy in VLC player for example.
