Key features: Offers chapters by renowned experts which are
comprised of three subunits: a theoretical discussion of the
content area, a description of the methods employed to address the
content area, and finally, and most importantly, a discussion of
the ways that relevant aspects of the content area can be easily
employed/adapted to enhance the behavioral management of NHPs
Provides case studies that highlight the areas of expertise of the
authors and emphasize 'success stories' that can be used to develop
behavioral management strategies and build behavioral management
programs Presents 'Genera-specific' chapters which focus on
behavioral management strategies that, typically, are successfully
employed with particular taxa of NHPs Includes a novel, pioneering
'Product/services' section that provides the producers of important
technologies, equipment, and services with an opportunity to
highlight the ways in which their products enhance the ability of
their clients to manage the behavior of NHPs Illustrated with full
color images and drawings throughout. The Handbook of Primate
Behavioral Management (HPBM) fills a void in the scientific
literature, providing those who work with nonhuman primates (NHPs)
with a centralized reference for many issues related to the care
and behavioral management of captive nonhuman primates. While there
are numerous publications scattered throughout the literature that
deal with the behavioral management of NHPs, this comprehensive
handbook is the first single-source reference to summarize and
synthesize this information. The HPBM is organized into six
complementary parts starting with an introductory section. The book
then provides in-depth coverage of content issues, applications and
implementation, genera-specific chapters, technology-related
questions involved in the behavioral management of NHPs, and a
concluding section. Primate behavioral management is a topic that
has recently generated a considerable number of primary
publications in the scientific literature, mostly with an applied
focus. Similarly, there are many primary publications currently
available that address more basic issues related to the
understanding of primate behavior. One of the principal goals of
the HPBM is to highlight and synthesize basic science advances that
can be adapted and applied to enhance the behavioral management of
captive NHPs.
