His primary studies include chimpanzee behaviour in Kibale Forest National Park, Uganda. His current interest is the study of human evolution in which he draws conclusions based on the behavioural tendencies of apes. He is the co-author of a book entitled /Demonic Males: Apes and the Origins of Human Violence/ with Dale Peterson. As a graduate student, Wrangham studied under Jane Goodall. He comes to speak to our department on his controversial theory about the role of cooking in human evolution. Wrangham argues that cooking explains the increase in hominid brain sizes, smaller teeth and jaws, decreased sexual dimorphism, and a shift toward monogamy that occurred roughly 1.8 million years ago.</p> <p>Free refreshments to follow!</div> </div> <br class="clear" /><div class="forum-topic-navigation"><a href="/general_discussion/social/wine_tasting_for_a_cure_friday_8_7" class="topic-previous" title="Go to previous forum topic">‹ Wine Tasting for a Cure!
