Babywatching by Desmond Morris

“Babywatching” by Desmond Morris. In great condition. Sturdy plastic dust jacket. Fascinating reading!

In “Babywatching” Desmond Morris combines his skills as a zoologist and manwatcher to take a close look at that most remarkable of all life forms — the human baby. The result is a revealing portrait of the first twelve months of life that answers many of the questions parents ask:
- Why do human babies enter the world with such difficulty when the young of other animals arrive so simply?
- How well can babies hear, smell and taste?
- Why do babies cry?
- What makes a baby smile?
- Are babies more sensitive to the outside world than we have believed?
- How important is the presence of the baby’s mother?

“Babywatching” [is] a classic [placed] alongside Desmond Morris’s world bestseller “The Naked Ape”.
