Description
Designed for a wide spectrum of scientists from biomedical and dental researchers to primatologists and physical anthropologists, this is a detailed presentation of the normal growth of the lower facial skeleton in a primate species. The study is based on a sample of 35 captive rhesus monkeys, whose facial growth was traced over a 10-year period from infancy to adulthood. The author identifies the relative contribution of various sites of growth, quantifies the relative roles of different types of development and sheds light on several long-standing controversies as to how the primate face grows.
