Primate Adaptation and Evolution, Fourth Edition provides key
features of extant families and references to more detailed texts.
The book sets the scene and creates space for a thorough updating
of exciting developments in primate paleontology and a
reconstruction through early hominid species of our own human
origins. This updated version covers recent developments in primate
paleontology, the latest taxonomy, and includes new visuals,
including helpful illustrations and evolutionary trees. It is an
ideal text for undergraduate and post-graduate students studying
the evolution and functional ecology of primates and early fossil
hominids.The book retains its grounding in the extant primate
groups as the best way to understand the fossil trail and evolution
of these modern forms. However, this coverage is now more
streamlined, referring to the many new and excellent books on
living primate ecology and adaptation - a field that has burgeoned
since this book's first publication.
