Shaping Primate Evolution is an edited collection of
state-of-the-art papers about how biological form is described in
primate biology, and the consequences of form for function and
behavior. The contributors are highly regarded internationally
recognized scholars in the field of quantitative primate
evolutionary morphology. Each chapter elaborates upon the analysis
of the form-function-behavior triad in a unique and compelling way.
This book is distinctive not only in the diversity of the topics
discussed, but also in the range of levels of biological
organization that are addressed from cellular morphometrics to the
evolution of primate ecology. The book is dedicated to Charles E.
Oxnard, whose influential pioneering work on innovative metric and
analytic techniques has gone hand-in-hand with meticulous
comparative functional analyses of primate anatomy. Through the
marriage of theory with analytical applications, this volume will
be an important reference work for all those interested in primate
functional morphology.
