Primate Social Behavior, edited by Charles H. Southwick, presents a landmark anthology of field and laboratory studies that chronicles the rich tapestry of social organisation, communication, aggression, and group dynamics observed across a wide range of primate species. Drawing on firsthand research from some of the most respected naturalists and behavioural scientists of the era, the collection assembles a compelling body of evidence that illuminates how primates form hierarchies, raise offspring, resolve conflict, and cooperate for survival.\n\nSouthwick's editorial hand is both authoritative and precise, curating contributions that together argue for a rigorous, empirical approach to understanding animal — and by extension, human — social behaviour. The work stands as a foundational text in the field of primatology, its insights reverberating through decades of subsequent research in ethology, evolutionary biology, and anthropology. For anyone seeking to understand the origins of social life itself, this volume raises questions that remain as urgent and unresolved today as when they were first posed.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49216197427419,"sku":"2026200014458-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/078f7461-20cb-4d19-9709-0c7a770fdd67.png?v=1788405109","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200014458-secondhand-primate-social-behavior","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
