Adaptive Radiation of Neotropical Primates,
This review is from: Adaptive Radiations of Neotropical Primates (Hardcover)
Don't let the title scare you. Even readers who are interested in "neotropics" as a whole can appreciate the technical nature of this volume of work. A progressively written volume on primate behavior that will "fuel the mind" of the "budding primate enthusiest" and titilate the seasoned taste buds of researchers and scientist alike. A serious read for serious brains. The title sure did a major face lift to my expanding bookcase.
