Industry Reviews

"Karen Strier's novel idea of collecting and publishing primatologists' mini memoirs in this volume has resulted in a valuable compendium of these individuals' experiences and motivations as well as their research interests. The book also makes an interesting addition to the social history of primatology. I can thoroughly recommend this book to primatologists and those interested in primatologists and what they do. Primate Ethnographies will also be a useful and interesting addition to many universities' bookshelves."- Sian Waters, Primate Eye (The Primate Society of Great Britain)
