Editorial Review Product Description Customer Reviews (1)
An unusual point of view about the conquest of Mexico "Brutality and Benevolence" is a fine historical work, analising the spanish conquest of Mexico in a fair and well-balanced way, with rigour, objectiveness and seriousness, far away from the redutionist and distorted vision imposed about such theme by the political correctness movement, especially during and after the commemorations of the fifth centenary of Columbus arrival on America. More than a conquest that brought opression to the indigenousness, this evenment was a truly liberation of those same peoples from the despotic domination of the Aztec Empire, a leviathan that demanded from his neighbouring and subjugated subjects of other native nations, permanently and abusively, high tributes, not only in the strict economic sense, but also and essentially in human lifes destined to be sacrificed in the blood thirsty rituals of the aztec religion. The defeat of the Aztecs by the Spaniards, with the consequent fall of capital city Tenochtitlan, was only possible with the decisive contribution of the other non-aztec indigenous (Tlaxcalans, Huexotzicans, Atlaxcans and Totonacs), that allied spanish forces in order to overthrow the aztec domination they suffered. It is also important to note, although the subsequent conqueror rule was not free of atrocities and abuses (mainly, derived from the system of "encomienda" that vigorated in the first years after the conquest; it was later forbidden, in the end of 16th century), contrarily to a common spread view, that same conqueror showed a real concern with the indians rights, especially through the justice system of "Audiencias" (frequently deciding in favour of the natives), but also with the creation of a net of hospitals destined to render health cares to those same natives. The author analises all these evenments from an ethological point of view, in my opinion, with credibility: man, being a part of the nature, obviously shows common features with other living beings (principally, primates like chimpanzees or gorillas, considering their almost complete genetic similarity with humans); however, some assertions of Abel Alves seem quite exaggerated. For example, the benevolence showed by the conqueror, more than a reminiscence of an innate feature, was not a direct consequence of his catholic religion? I think it was... Concluding, the book is very interesting and I recommend it (despite the price...) to persons searching an unusual relate of the conquest of Mexico. ... Read more |

Editorial Review Product Description The main part of the book is dedicated to the physiological basis of large animal behaviour, the development of behaviour, the manifold nature of behaviour relating to maintenance and to reproduction. Syndromes of irregular and abnormal behaviour are also fully covered. The book will be an authoritative reference work for teachers and students. Researchers in the livestock sphere will find it invaluable as a source of behavioural information. |
