- Title
Aggressive Man and Aggressive Beast.
- Authors
EDWARDS, ROBERT F.
- Abstract
The article focuses on the cause of aggression in both human beings and animals in relatively simple types of social organizations. It states that aggression refers to the actual and symbolic attack upon another individual. The aggressive behavior encompasses crowing, ruffling the hackles, circling the rival as well as waltzing. In addition, aggressiveness among nonhumans is a product of inheritance, maturation, various endogenous factors and experience. The manifestation of aggression, however, depends upon the presentation of proper external stimuli from other individuals of the same species.
