“How Primates Eat is more than a book; it is a meticulously researched synthesis of modern nutritional ecology. I believe it is an essential volume that will occupy a central place on the shelves of primatologists, anthropologists, and ecologists for years to come. It serves as both a comprehensive account of five decades of progress and a vital compass for the future study and conservation of our closest living relatives.”
