Man's Place in Nature
La Place de l'homme dans la nature. Le Groupe zoologique humain

A condensed and more technical version of The Human Phenomenon, born of lectures at the Sorbonne: life as the coiling of matter upon itself, the unfolding of the biosphere, the step of reflection and the formation of the noosphere. It is the most sober exposition of his thesis.
