Let me introduce myself: I am a professor emeritus for molecular genetics at the faculty of Medicine, Tel Aviv University and an amateur painting artist (eight exhibitions on surrealistic subjects). My first book named Illusions (written in Hebrew) was published 4 months ago.As to the present book –The Dressed Ape - (written in Hebrew and translated to English), the story is based on my wish to fuse together my scientific background with the artistic one. In the book, art is represented by a well known wealthy male painter, whereas science, is represented by his attractive female model who is found to be a PhD student of molecular anthropology.The meeting point of science, art, gender and obviously – sex, undresses us - the modern city dwellers - from our clothes and brings us back to our origin – the savannas of Africa.Depending on that, the book tries to show that the traits that kept for the last 200,000 years, the human race alive, did not change much and kept us behaving as if we still live in our endemic environment.Thank you and looking forward to hear from you.SincerelyAmi Klein
