Primates have complex social relationships and diverse ecologies, and represent a large species radiation. This book draws together a wide range of experts from fields as diverse as reproductive biology and foraging energetics to place recent field research into a synthetic perspective. The chapters tackle controversial issues in primate biology and behaviour, including the role of brain expansion and infanticide in the evolution of primate behavioural strategies. The book also presents an overview of comparative methodologies as applied to recent primate research which will provide new approaches to comparative research. It will be of particular interest to primatologists, behavioural ecologists and those interested in the evolution of human social behaviour. 410 0$aCambridge studies in biological and evolutionary anthropology ;$v22. 606 $aPrimates$xBehavior 606 $aPrimates$xEcology 606 $aPrimates$xEvolution 606 $aSocial evolution in animals 615 0$aPrimates$xBehavior. 615 0$aPrimates$xEcology. 615 0$aPrimates$xEvolution. 615 0$aSocial evolution in animals. 676 $a599.8 702 $aLee$b Phyllis C. 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910777382303321 996 $aComparative primate socioecology$93791933 997 $aUNINA
