"The extraordinary story of these fascinating animals, A Fragile Balance, provides up-to-date information on marsupials without losing sight of the unique set of circumstances that led them to diversify Down Under. Covering all marsupial species in Australia, the book uses an evolutionary and natural history framework to interpret their biological traits. The general chapters on biology, evolution, natural history, cultural history and conservation are bounded by feature treatments of six species of note. A Fragile Balance is the first book to emphasize interactions among marsupials, and between marsupials and their environment, as well as between humans and marsupials. The text is completed by accounts of all known species, each including a basic biological and ecological description, a range map and a measure of conservation status."--BOOK JACKET.

The Fragile Male is the first study of male behavior through scientific observation. Males may first have evolved to serve females; by accident and virtue of their strength men grew to believe they were superior. Dr. Greenstein analyses and exposes human male behavior through revelatory comparisons with males of other species. In many cases the same instincts that drive male animals to exclude females and seek dominance are responsible for human male behavior.
