It Must Be Stressed That There Is Nothing Insulting About Looking At People As Animals. We Are Animals, After All. Homo Sapiens Is A Species Of Primate, A Biological Phenomenon Dominated By Biological Rules, Like Any Other Species. Human Nature Is No More Than One Particular Kind Of Animal Nature. Agreed, The Human Species Is An Extraordinary Animal; But All Other Species Are Also Extraordinary Animals, Each In Their Own Way, And The Scientific Man-watcher Can Bring Many Fresh Insights To The Study Of Human Affairs If He Can Retain This Basic Attitude Of Evolutionary Humility.
