About this book
Reviews
From the reviews:
“The scope of the current volume is broader, in terms of both topic and the study populations considered, and, for this reason, especially welcome as a source of reference for an English-language readership.” (S. Peter Henzi, Primates, Vol. 52 (2), April, 2011)
“This multi-authored volume was produced to commemorate the 23rd Congress of the International Primatological Society that was held in Kyoto … . a very dense book in terms of the amount of material covered in what is a relatively slim volume. … the most comprehensive book ever published in English on Japanese macaques and I see no reason to doubt this. … a book that should be in everyone’s institution library and anyone interested in macaque biology should consider purchasing a copy … .” (Bill Sellers, Primate Eye, June, 2012)
