Hi Nick, What immediately came to mind was the primate research crowd. i snuck into SFI when De Waal gave some workshops there a few years ago, but he doesn't have a book with that title. However, Chris Boehm, who I also met somewhere along the way, does have a book titled "Hierarchy in the Forest: The Evolution of Egalitarian Behavior." It's a terrific book, and I have a copy if that's what you're after.
