This chapter examines the collaborative journey of Lionel Tiger and Robin Fox. Tiger found his way to animal behavior as a result of his long-standing fascination with the logic of leadership. Fox came to animal behavior through a different route entirely, through the ethological insight that the origins of emotions lay in our evolutionary past. Both men made quite a pair as they quickly bonded in London in 1965 and began to work together. Fox and Tiger, both at the time and retrospectively, described their collaboration and the dynamics of the academic culture in which they worked as a function of theories about men in groups.
Keywords: Lionel Tiger, Robin Fox, animal behavior, emotions, men, collaboration, leadership
