The chimpanzee is one of our planet's best-loved and most instantly
recognisable animals. Splitting from the human lineage between four
and six million years ago, it is (along with its cousin, the
bonobo) our closest living relative, sharing around 94% of our DNA.
First encountered by Westerners in the seventeenth century,
virtually nothing was known about chimpanzees in their natural
environment until 1960, when Jane Goodall travelled to Gombe to
live and work with them. Accessibly written, yet fully referenced
and uncompromising in its accuracy and comprehensiveness, this book
encapsulates everything we currently know about chimpanzees: from
their discovery and why we study them, to their anatomy,
physiology, genetics and culture. The text is beautifully
illustrated and infused with examples and anecdotes drawn from the
author's thirty years of primate observation, making this a perfect
resource for students of biological anthropology and primatology as
well as non-specialists interested in chimpanzees.
