Author: Scott McGraw, Klaus Zuberbuhler, Ronald Noe

A great deal has been written about primates; however few volumes have focused on an entire community of sympatric monkeys at a single site. Drawing upon diverse sets of data, the authors provide a multi-thematic case study of the entire monkey community of the Taï forest (Ivory Coast). Featuring a large section of colour photographs, which significantly enhance the behaviours discussed in the text, the breadth of this important volume means it will be of interest to a wide variety of primatologists, functional anatomists, psychologists, and behavioural ecologists.
