CambridgeStudiesinBiologicalandEvolutionaryAnthropology40 ShapingPrimateEvolution Form,Function,andBehavior ShapingPrimateEvolutionisaneditedcollectionofstate-of-the-artpapers about how biological form is described in primate biology, and the conse- quences of form for function and behavior. The contributors are highly re- garded,internationallyrecognizedscholarsinthefieldofquantitativeprimate evolutionary morphology. Each chapter elaborates upon the analysis of the form–function–behaviortriadinauniqueandcompellingway.Thisbookis distinctive not only in the diversity of the topics discussed, but also in the range of levels of biological organization that are addressed, from cellular morphometricstotheevolutionofprimateecology.Thebookisdedicatedto CharlesE.Oxnard,whoseinfluentialpioneeringworkoninnovativemetric andanalytictechniqueshasgonehand-in-handwithmeticulouscomparative functionalanalysesofprimateanatomy.Throughthemarriageoftheorywith analyticalapplications,thisvolumewillbeanimportantreferenceworkfor allthoseinterestedinprimatefunctionalmorphology.
