Book Synopsis

This new, second edition of Primate Ethnographies: Fieldwork from Across the Globe is a collection of first-person accounts of immersive field studies of primates, people, and institutions, revealing the excitement of studying wild primates and the multi-faceted challenges involved in conducting field research.

This collection of essays spans the diversity of the Primate Order, from lemurs, to monkeys and apes. The ethnographic accounts are written by experts whose diverse backgrounds and experiences reveal the broader nature of the primatological field experience and provide glimpses into the many different pathways one can follow into the field of contemporary primatology. This new edition features updated chapters from original contributors, as well as new voices from across the global north and south representing cutting edge scholarship in the field. Collectively, these essays provide insights into the driving concerns of field primatology as it is practiced across the globe.

Primate Ethnographies: Fieldwork from Across the Globe is of interest to students from fields across the academy including Primatology, Anthropology, Wildlife Ecology, Zoology, Conservation Biology, and Science/Nature Writing.
