"The Ape of Sorrows" examines humans and our behaviors in a new and
captivating way and presents our species as a being of sorrows who
thousands of years ago, lost its original or fixed habitat.
Maurice Rowdon has authored several books on animal/human
intelligence and opens with a gripping retelling of the monkey
brawl at the London zoo during the 1930s - a scene that illustrates
the power of sexuality and instinct to affect animal behavior. As
Rowdon shares the results of his intense studies of and comparisons
between humans and animals, he portrays the human as he truly is -
the least intelligent animal of all the creatures, while
emphasizing the fact that even today, modern science continues to
struggle to catch up with nature. As Rowdon diplomatically
challenges long-held scientific beliefs, he offers his own theories
as he carefully measures impulse versus astuteness in both the
human and animal and why either creature may eventually leave its
habitat enhanced or depleted.
Manifestations of the human being's need to conquer everything
in its path are evident everywhere in the world today. "The Ape of
Sorrows" provides valuable insight and the unique opportunity to
view humans without self-condemnation as an eroded species
dedicated to its own destruction.
