This book is written particularly foc tile beginning student who is being
exposed for the first time to the Prinlates as a field of academic study.
This student may be in an anthropology, primatology, zoology, psychol-
ogy, or natural science comse, since tile study of the primates knows 11o
boundaries. The genetics student may also find this book of iCtterest in
light of the great variety of primates, living and fossil. Whatever tile
case may be, the student is faced with a mass of different types of primatcs
and all even greater mass of what nlllSt appear nliscellaneons infoynlatioil.
This introductory text is designed to simplify this situation, for it should
be the goal of every beginning text to simplify the complex.
First, the Primates are divided into two logical groupings: the
modern, or living priraates; and the fossil ones, the primates of the past.
A second way of simplifying matters is the llSe of the pattern concept
no single primate or group of primates is defined on a basis of one or two
characteristics but on the general pattern displayed. By use of boldface
type, the student is presented not only with what is important and what
to remember but also has a quick reference system for reviewing. Each
chapter has a pattern sUlnlllaly at tile end so tile reader Call check his
recall and quickly refer back to the conesponding boldface print.
