: Life: Man ...the super animal?
Life ...in the animal world.A unique film study by Hans Hass recently shown on BBC-1 suggests that human behaviour may be predictable from comparative animal behaviour. Is man so far removed from the rest of the animal world as to make any such comparison invalid? Or is he still inexorably tied to unreasoning instinct?
Dr. Hass and his ethological adviser Dr. Eibl-Eibesfeldt discuss their study.
With Dr. Robin Fox, London School of Economics and Dr. Lionel Tiger, University of British Columbia.
Programme introduced by Dr. Frank George, University of Bristol.

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
