This volume analyzes the behaviorl interactions between infant and
adult male baboons. The result is the first quantitative
description of infant-adult male relations for any higher primate,
including humans. The idea that emerges is that infant-adult male
relations are far more complex than the mere paternal caretaking or
exploitation that has previously been assumed, and these relations
are specific, long-term, reciprocal, and beneficial to both infants
and the adult males. The book also deals with many current topics
of interest, including parental investment, kidnapping, altruism,
food sharing, agonistic buffering, adoption, and infanticide.
