Chimpanzees, including common chimpanzees and bonobos, are our
closest living relatives. This book, which is the first
photographic and descriptive musculoskeletal atlas of the genus
Pan, adopts the same format as the photographic atlases of Gorilla
and Hylobates previously published by the same authors. These three
books are part of a series of monographs that will set out the
comparative and phylogenetic context of the gross anatomy and
evolutionary history of the soft tissue morphology of modern humans
and their closest relatives. The atlas, which includes detailed
high-quality photographs of musculoskeletal structures from most
anatomical regions of the body as well as textual information about
the attachments, innervation, function and weight of the respective
muscles, is based on dissections of up to 12 chimpanzees and on an
extensive review of the literature. It provides an updated review
of the anatomical variations within chimpanzees as well as an
extensive list of the synonyms used in the literature. The book is
designed for students, teachers and researchers studying
primatology, comparative anatomy, functional morphology, zoology,
and physical anthropology and to medical students, doctors and
researchers who are curious about the origin, evolution, homology
and variations of the musculoskeletal structures of modern humans.
