Macaques are perhaps the most comprehensively studied of all monkey groups, and the 20 species feature a broad diversity of social relationships, making them an ideal group for exploring the evolution of primate societies. This book investigates how societies arose, developed and were transformed during the course of evolution. Written especially for students of animal behavior and primatology, the study will be of interest as well to those studying human societies and their evolution. | Macaque Societies by Bernard Thierry, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
