TTC-Roots of Human Behavior (12 lectures, 30 minutes/lecture) Course No. 168 Taught by Barbara J. King The College of William and Mary Ph.D., University of Oklahoma While human history is usually studied from the perspective of a few hundred years, anthropologists consider deeper causes for the ways we act. In this course, anthropologist Barbara J. King uses her wealth of research experience to open a window of understanding for you into the legacy left by our primate past.
These lectures look for the roots of human behavior in the behavior of other primates: monkeys, apes, and human ancestors.
