内容説明

In this unique volume, a group of internationally recognized experts and researchers review the literature and present new data on the skeletal anatomy, reproductive physiology and anatomy, neuroanatomy, behaviour, evolutionary genetics, and palaeontology of orang-utans. It is the most thorough and comprehensive reference available on the the biology and evolution of this fascinating primate group.
