Primate Sexuality: Comparative Studies of the Prosimians, Monkeys, Apes, and Humans

Autor Alan F. Dixson

Primate Sexuality provides an authoritative and comprehensive synthesis of current research on the evolution and physiological control of sexual behaviour in the primates - prosimians, monkeys, apes, and human beings. This new edition has been fully updated and greatly expanded throughout to incorporate a decade of new research findings. It maintains the depth and scientific rigour of the first edition, and includes a new chapter on human sexuality, written from a comparative perspective. It contains 2600 references, almost 400 figures and photographs, and 73 tables.

Recenzii

In 15 richly illustrated chapters Alan Dixson lays out the fundamentals of primate and human sexuality. The only book that has been anywhere near as complete and interesting as Primate Sexuality was his previous edition of this book, and in this new edition Dixson has surpassed himself. Primatologists and evolutionary biologists are in the authors debt for an invaluable labour of love.
Alan Dixson's impeccable scholarship and analysis provides a balanced discussion of the controversies, and the limitations of current knowledge. A superb, authoritative, brilliant, and engaging reference.
A solid demonstration of first class scholarship that weaves together evolutionary biology, reproductive physiology, and developmental neurobiology. It is a must-read.
