Product Description

In very general terms, "scaling" can be defined as the structural func tional consequences of differences in size (or scale) among organisms of more or less similar design. Interest in certain aspects of body size scaling in primate biology (e. g. , relative brain size) dates to the turn of the century, scientific debate dialogue on numerous aspects of this general subject have continued to be a primary concern of primatologists, physical an thropologists, other vertebrate biologists up to the present. Indeed, the intensity scope of such research on primates have grown enormously in the past decade or so. Information continues to accumulate rapidly from many different sources, the task of synthesizing the available data theories on any given topic is becoming increasingly formidable. In addition to the formal exchange of new ideas information among scientific experts in specific areas of scaling research, two of the major goals of this volume are an assessment of our progress toward understanding various size-related phe nomena in primates the identification of future prospects for continuing advances in this realm. Although the subject matter specific details of the issues considered in the 20 chapters that follow are very diversified, all topics share the same fundamental unifying biological theme: body size variation in primates its implications for behavior ecology, anatomy physiology, evolution.
