[LMB] (chat) De Waal, again

[Lois McMaster Bujold]

So...

...the lecture by Frans De Waal out at the Minnesota Zoo this evening 
was just delightful.  I felt very privileged to attend, and I need to 
hunt down whoever turned me on to it -- I think it was over on my blog 
-- and thank them.  (And James N., here, of course, who first 
recommended the books.)

The lecture was basically a presentation of much the same material as 
may be found in _Our Inner Ape_, but with more photos and film clips, 
and a Q&A afterward.  So you need not feel too deprived, because your 
local library or Amazon can doubtless supply this:

Lucid, unpretentious, with a high proportion of data to agenda, and 
recommended.
