Reviews

'Primate Communication is appropriate for a wide audience, from those beginning in the field, to those already immersed in it. ... [It] is an easily digestible, diverse, and thorough review of the importance of investigating - simultaneously - the multiple ways that primates communicate to each other. I highly recommend it for students, instructors and primate enthusiasts alike!' Alex K. Piel, Primate Eye
