Chimpanzees are humanity's closest living relations and are of
enduring interest to a range of sciences, from anthropology to
zoology. In the West, many know of the pioneering work of Jane
Goodall, whose studies of these apes at Gombe in Tanzania are
justly famous. Less well-known, but equally important, are the
studies carried out by Toshisada Nishida on the eastern shore of
Lake Tanganyika. Comparison between the two sites yields both
notable similarities and startling contrasts. Nishida has written a
comprehensive synthesis of his work on the behaviour and ecology of
the chimpanzees of the Mahale Mountains. With topics ranging from
individual development to population-specific behavioural patterns,
it reveals the complexity of social life, from male struggles for
dominant status to female travails in raising offspring. Richly
illustrated, the author blends anecdotes with powerful data to
explore the fascinating world of the chimpanzees of the lakeshore.
