Summary: Pictures of primates galore!
Comment: This book has everything. There are pictures in here of virtually all 246 species (give or take a few). There are great summaries about each animal and a hearty set of basic references for each. I love this book and look at it all the time. A must for anyone who loves primates.

Rating: 5
Summary: Outstanding!
Comment: The Pictoral Guide to the Living Primates is the most outstanding book I have seen of its kind. As a zookeeper and lover of primates, I have researched various books and have not found one as complete as this book. Most books only have pictures of some of the primates, whereas this book has at least one picture for each species. The information provided for each species is thorough, yet simlpy written making it much more enjoyable to read. I greatly recommend this book to anyone intersted in or researching primates. A great find.

Rating: 5
Summary: By far the BEST
Comment: This guide to the living primates is by far the best guide I have come accross in my studies. The author has gone out of his way to photograph the subjuct animals in their natural environment, relying on captive photos only when absolutely nescessary. I find myself using this book over and over, both professionally and personally. The photos are beautiful and the write ups are concise and well written. I love the page on Homo sapiens, which has a mirror instead of a photo. The write up on the humans is amusing as well. All in all the best of its kind. I really need to purchase another, mine is falling apart simply from use. A must for any physical anthropology student, environmentalist or nature lover.
