This edited volume is the first of its kind to bridge the epistemological gap between primate ethologists and primate neurobiologists. Leading experts in several fields will review work ranging from primate foraging behavior to the neurophysiology of motor control, from vocal communication to the functions of the auditory cortex. This synthesis of the cognitive, ethological and neurobiological approaches to primate behavior will yield the richest understanding of our primate cousins to date and will shed light on the evolutionary development of human behavior and cognition. The book contains chapters by leading primatologists, comparative psychologists, and neuroscientists who have developed new ideas and experimental approaches and applied them to a variety of issues dealing with primate behavior and neurobiology. The volume represents an important contribution for both the professional and the student, and collects for the first time in a single book both basic and cutting-edge information on primate behavior and cognition, neurobiology, and the emerging discipline of neuroethology.

Michael Platt is Associate Professor of Neurobiology and Evolutionary Anthropology at Duke University, and Director of the Center for Cognitive Neuroscience. His research focuses on the neuroethology and neuroeconomics of human and nonhuman primate behavior and cognition. Michael received his B.A from Yale and his Ph.D. from the University of Pennsylvania, both in biological anthropology, and was a post-doctoral fellow in neuroscience at New York University.Asif A. Ghazanfar is an Assistant Professor in the Neuroscience Institute and Departments of Psychology and Ecology & Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University. His research focuses on the neurobiology and evolution of primate vocal communication and how both aspects are influenced by body morphology and socioecological context. Asif received his B.Sci. in Philosophy from the University of Idaho and his Ph.D. in Neurobiology from Duke University. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Harvard University and a research scientist at the Max Planck Institute for Biological Cybernetics in Tuebingen, Germany before moving to Princeton.
