Animal and human societies are multifaceted. In order to understand
how they have evolved, it is necessary to investigate each of the
constituent facets including individual abilities and
personalities, life-history traits, mating systems, demographic
dynamics, gene flows, social relationships, ecology and phylogeny.
By exploring the nature and evolution of macaque social
organization, this book develops our knowledge of the rise of
societies and their transformation during the course of evolution.
Macaques are the most comprehensively studied of all monkey groups,
and the 20 known species feature a broad diversity in their social
relationships, making them a particularly good group for exploring
the evolution of societies. This book will be of primary interest
to those studying animal behaviour and primatology, but will also
be useful to those involved in the study of human societies.
