Introduction to the primates
by Daris Ray Swindler
"Introduction to the Primates is a comprehensive but compact guide to the long evolutionary history of the world's prosimians, monkeys, and apes, and to the much shorter history of humankind's interactions with them, from our earliest recorded observations to the severe threats we now pose to their survival." "Daris Swindler provides a detailed description of the major primate groups and their environments from the smallest lemurs of Madagascar to the gorillas of central Africa. He compares and contrasts the primate species, looking at each with a specific anatomical focus. Swindler also considers primate behavior and its close connections with environment and evolutionary differences."--BOOK JACKET.
