Thetopicofanimal welfare isbroad andcutsacrossdisciplines. Therefore,two goalsguidedourchoiceofauthorsandareastocover.Thefirstgoalwastoprovidea resource for people who work with nonhuman primates. As such, we sought out a widerangeofexpertswhocouldwriteabouttopicsrelatedtothewelfareofprimates indifferentsettings,suchasinlaboratories,zoos,andsanctuaries,andprimatesfrom different backgrounds, including those kept as pets or used in the entertainment industry.Thesecond,related,goalwastoprovidearesourceforpeoplewhoguideor shapepolicyon,orengenderdebatesabout,theproperuseandcareofprimates(note thatwefullyexpectthatthesetwoaudienceswilloverlap!).Totheseends,wesought out chapters from philosophers, ethicists, legal scholars, and both advocates and adversariesoftheuseofnonhumanprimatesinresearch.Finally,insupportofthese goals, we recruited authors whose chapters would provide historical overviews for these other chaptersandtried tofind authors willing to write about the situation in countries other than the USA, member nations of the European Union, and other countriesinEurope,suchastheUK.Wehopethatthereadersofthisbook,including thosethatwedidnotmention,andespeciallystudents,willagreethatwehavebeen modestlysuccessfulinachievingourgoals. 1TakenfromWaittC.etal.(2002).Theeffectsofcaretaker-primaterelationshipsonprimatesinthe laboratory.JApplAnimWelfSci5(4),309–319.https://doi.org/10.1207/S15327604JAWS0504_05 vii viii Preface Ofcourse,aswithTop10lists,weexpectthatopinionswilldifferwithregardto what we did and did not include in this book. In particular, we expect that some chapters and/or their authors will raise some readers’ hackles.

A few notes of thanks are in order. This book could not have been completed without the contributions of the authors. Their hard work and patience are much appreciated. We also gratefully acknowledge the assistance from the editors at Springer. They were always on hand to answer our questions. In addition, a considerableportionofAlex’sworkonthebookandchapterwascompletedduring a Visiting Professorship at the Kyoto University Wildlife Research Center. He thanks his hosts, and especially Professor Miho Inoue-Murayama, for their help andformakingthiswonderfulopportunitypossible. Sincehumansbegantokeepprimatesincaptivity,humanshavemadevaststrides in understanding their cognitive abilities, social bonds, and personalities. We hope that the science, practice, information, and wisdom presented in this book will go some way in ensuring that, whether they are in our care or not, these evolutionary cousinsofourswillleadgoodlives.
