Description
Summary:These proceedings of a symposium held in Maja, Mexico, in October 1987 offer multidisciplinary investigations of ontogency's role in primate evolution and the place of life history in evolutionary studies. This work presents a comprehensive view of life history's value in facilitating primate evolution research by giving equal emphasis to the two components of life history: the processes in individual organisms, and the structural consequences of those processes in higher levels of organization.
