Primate Comparative Anatomy

"A nearly perfect introduction to a complex and fascinating subject."—Choice

"Synthesizing the extensive and detailed anatomical literature related to primate bony morphology is no small task, and Gebo does a fantastic job of summarizing important anatomies and oddities, and how these relate to functional demands . . . The next generation of scholars learning from this textbook will almost certainly come to the same realization as Darwin, Cuvier, and Linnaeus—that comparative anatomy is essential for understanding our place within primates."—New Biological Books

"This book serves as a good, basic introduction to primate anatomy, and there are many attractive, large illustrations throughout the book to accompany anatomical descriptions."—Journal of Mammology

"Daniel Gebo has produced a text that can only be described as invaluable to the researcher, academic, conservationist, primatologist or student of evolutionary studies. A dream of a book."—The Biologist

"I highly recommend Gebo's book to teachers of undergraduate primate anatomy."—Journal of Mammalian Evolution

"Primate Comparative Anatomy is a very strong addition to the available books on primate anatomy. A clear, logical, and useful resource for students and a nice quick reference for researchers."—Timothy M. Ryan, The Pennsylvania State University
