From the reviews:
„The behavioral flexibility of primates is widely appreciated, but it is rare to find a book like this one, which treats the topic with the analytical attention it deserves. Clara Jones draws heavily on examples … to illustrate why considers the ability to respond to changing conditions to be one of the signature traits of primates. … Behavioral Flexibility in Primates is a slim volume whose 138 pages of text are supplemented with a helpful glossary of technical terms and references … .“ (Karen B. Strier, International Journal of Primatology, Vol. 27 (2), April, 2006)
Numerous figures, illustrations, and tables; integration of new literature and concepts into field of primatology; emphasis upon both behavioral and cognitive mechanisms
