Immunological Aspects of Viral Oncolysis

of disciplines were represented including anthropology, psychology, psychiatry, neurology, mathematics, linguistics, and zoology. One of the major topics was the complexity and variability of primate societies which depend on factors such as the breeding season, estrus cycles, and formation of new groups. Another theme was the evolutionary trend in the naturalistic and biological approaches. An important aspect of the meeting was the emphasis on quantitative studies, which represents a decisive advance over the former reliance on anecdotal description of monkey behavior. This book is divided into five sections: Reproductive behavior, Agonistic behavior, Causal mechanisms, Social dynamics, and Communication processes. The general level of the articles is highly sophisticated, the bibliography provided is excellent and comprehensive, and altogether this book is the most authoritative survey of our existing knowledge of primate communication. Certainly it will also help to improve the communication among scientists interested in this subject.
