Historia natural de los ricos

By Richard Conniff

Nature

Synthetic audio

Summary

Richard Conniff indaga acerca de si la vieja pregunta ¿son los ricos diferentes del resto de la gente? es cierta y concluye que, efectivamente, son unos animales completamente distintos. Observa con mucho sentido del humor esta especie social única, develando… sus estrategias de dominación y sumisión, su comportamiento exhibicionista, sus intrincados mecanismos jerárquicos, así como sus poco ortodoxas prácticas de apareamiento. Comparándola con otras especies exóticas, Conniff descubre sorprendentes coincidencias. ¿En qué medida la aduladora actitud de los ricos se parece a la de los babuinos? ¿Cómo logró la aristocracia británica convertirse en la jerarquía animal más perfecta del planeta? ¿Por qué el aislamiento acaba haciendo de los ricos una subespecie? Un cautivador y desternillante análisis sobre la idiosincrásica existencia de los muy ricos, a través de la aguda lente de un naturalista. "Richard Conniff es un escritor espléndido, lleno de frescura, claridad y ninguna condescendencia." The New York Times Book Review
