Desmond Morris
|
In a HARDtalk interview first broadcast on 13 February 2008, Stephen Sackur talks to the zoologist and author Desmond Morris.
It's forty years since Desmond Morris wrote The Naked Ape, a book which caught the public's imagination and changed the way we see ourselves.
His thesis that man is essentially primitive in his behaviour has been widely criticised, particularly by feminists.
Now eighty and having just published his fifty-fifth book, Desmond Morris talks to Stephen Sackur and explains how he can hold these views while describing himself as a feminist.
HARDtalk is broadcast on BBC World at 04:30h GMT, 09:30h GMT, 14:30h GMT, 21:30h GMT and 23:30h GMT.
Hardtalk can also be seen on BBC News 24 at 04:30h & 23:30h.
