Primate Diversity offers a descriptive overview of primatology for students who have had no previous exposure to anthropology. Suitable for courses that study primate taxonomy, evolution, behaviour and ecology, this text is accessible and well balanced. The author integrates theoretical material with descriptive matter for each taxonomic group. Combining an engaging selection of current research and a careful examination of a variety of species, Primate Diversity provides a distinctive introduction to the field of primatology, its methods and the animals themselves.
