Primate Sexuality: Comparative Studies of the Prosimians, Monkeys, Apes, and Humans

In 15 richly illustrated chapters Alan Dixson lays out the fundamentals of primate and human sexuality. The only book that has been anywhere near as complete and interesting as Primate Sexuality was his previous edition of this book, and in this new edition Dixson has surpassed himself. Primatologists and evolutionary biologists are in the authors debt for an invaluable labour of love. * Professor Richard Wrangham, Harvard University, USA * Alan Dixson's impeccable scholarship and analysis provides a balanced discussion of the controversies, and the limitations of current knowledge. A superb, authoritative, brilliant, and engaging reference. * Professor Elisabeth Lloyd, Indiana University, USA * A solid demonstration of first class scholarship that weaves together evolutionary biology, reproductive physiology, and developmental neurobiology. It is a must-read. * Professor Fred Bercovitch, Primate Research Institute, Kyoto University, Japan *
