Let Go of My Eggo.

A territory is an area of space that an animal guards as its exclusive possession and which it will defend against all members of its kind. Of course, we did not need somebody to tell us that. Yet in 1996 we did need a book, this one as part of the popular science of the time, to open our eyes to this phenomenon and what it means to us. Look closer at the subtitle, and you too will still be interested in “A Personal Inquiry into the Origins of Property and Nations (Biological Nations).” Robert Ardrey, an American playwright and screenwriter, does what we all do (well, most of us) and dives into the anthropology of his day. Therefore, this is a terrific book to see what the general view, or at least one person’s insight, was in the 1960s. Now, of course, with hindsight, there are plenty of contradictory theories and writings. But we should not overlook this gem. This book also includes drawings by Berdine Ardrey, an extensive bibliography, and an index.
