How living with and beside humans has affected macaques. 330 $aMost successful among the non-human primates in terms of geographical distribution and adaptability to ecological habitats, macaques have existed for many thousands of years in close contact with modern humans, the only primate more successful than them. Centuries-old literary works attest to the fact that macaques have always been an intrinsic part of human lives and imaginations. In their interactions with humans, macaques play multiple roles that often transcend the boundaries of categorization. They are often, simultaneously, wildlife and domestic pets, sentient beings and experimental subjects, crop-raiding pests and religious symbols.  In many parts of the tropics, macaques are an economic resource for human communities, as they provide meat and money through tourism and the animal trade. Equally, they cause much damage and bring about great economic losses due to their crop- and house-raiding tendencies. A more recent cause for alarm has been the possibility of transmission of diseases to humans due to contact with macaques. Across Asia, macaques, perhaps more than any other animal species, exemplify the multiple facets of synurbization and the conservation problems of commensal species.   Humans and macaques associate in rather remarkable ways, and this volume explores the tone and nature of those human-macaque connections by focusing on various forms of interactions between macaques and humans, change in human attitudes vis-à-vis macaques over the ages, cultural views on macaques, human-macaque conflict and its conservation implications. Its holistic perspective of the myriad aspects that illustrate the singular relationship between men and macaques makes it essential reading not only for primatologists and anthropologists but also for anyone interested in the intricacies of human-animal relations. 410 0$aDevelopments in Primatology: Progress and Prospects,$x1574-3489 ;$v43 606 $aMacaques 615 0$aMacaques. 676 $a599.86415 701 $aRadhakrishna$b Sindhu$01757947 701 $aHuffman$b Michael A$01065520 701 $aSinha$b Anindya$01757948 712 02$aInternational Primatological Society.$bCongress$d(23rd :$f2010 :$eKyoto, Japan) 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910437612003321 996 $aThe macaque connection$94195988 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03518nim 2200625Ka 450 001 9910158839403321 005 20240912110245.8 010 $a0-06-264200-6 035 $a(CKB)3710000001011024 035 $a(BIP)055362154 035 $a(ODN)ODN0002686121 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001011024 100 $a20170110d2017 uy 1 101 0 $aeng 135 $auruna---||||| 181 $cspw$2rdacontent 182 $cs$2rdamedia 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aCarve the mark /$fVeronica Roth 205 $aUnabridged. 210 $cHarperCollins 215 $a1 online resource (14 audio files) $cdigital 225 0 $aCarve the Mark,$v1. 311 08$a0-06-234863-9 330 $aGlobally bestselling Divergent author Veronica Roth delivers a breathtaking fantasy featuring an unusual friendship, an epic love story, and a galaxy-sweeping adventure. #1 New York Times bestseller * Wall Street Journal bestseller * USA Today bestseller * #1 IndieBound bestseller Praise for Carve the Mark: "Roth skillfully weaves the careful world-building and intricate web of characters that distinguished Divergent." ?VOYA (starred review) "Roth offers a richly imagined, often brutal world of political intrigue and adventure, with a slow-burning romance at its core." ?ALA Booklist Cyra Noavek and Akos Kereseth have grown up in enemy countries locked in a long-standing fight for dominance over their shared planet. When Akos and his brother are kidnapped by the ruling Noavek family, Akos is forced to serve Cyra, the sister of a dictator who governs with violence and fear. Cyra is known for her deadly power of transferring extraordinary pain unto others with simple touch, and her tyrant brother uses her as a weapon against those who challenge him. But as Akos fights for his own survival, he recognizes that Cyra is also fighting for hers, and that her true gift?resilience?might be what saves them both. When Akos and Cyra are caught in the middle of a raging rebellion, everything they've been led to believe about their world and themselves must be called into question. But fighting for what's right might mean betraying their countries, their families, and each other. When the time comes, will they choose loyalty or love?
