Manipulative Monkeys
Author: Susan Perry
Publisher: Harvard University Press
ISBN: 0674060385
Category : Nature
Languages : en
Pages : 367
Book Description
With their tonsured heads, white faces, and striking cowls, the monkeys might vaguely resemble the Capuchin monks for whom they were named. How they act is something else entirely. They climb onto each other's shoulders four deep to frighten enemies. They test friendship by sticking their fingers up one another's noses. They often nurse--but sometimes kill--each other's offspring. They use sex as a means of communicating. And they negotiate a remarkably intricate network of alliances, simian politics, and social intrigue. Not monkish, perhaps, but as we see in this downright ethnographic account of the capuchins of Lomas Barbudal, their world is as complex, ritualistic, and structured as any society. Manipulative Monkeys takes us into a Costa Rican forest teeming with simian drama, where since 1990 primatologists Susan Perry and Joseph H. Manson have followed the lives of four generations of capuchins. What the authors describe is behavior as entertaining--and occasionally as alarming--as it is recognizable: the competition and cooperation, the jockeying for position and status, the peaceful years under an alpha male devolving into bloody chaos, and the complex traditions passed from one generation to the next. Interspersed with their observations of the monkeys' lives are the authors' colorful tales of the challenges of tropical fieldwork--a mixture so rich that by the book's end we know what it is to be a wild capuchin monkey or a field primatologist. And we are left with a clear sense of the importance of these endangered monkeys for understanding human behavioral evolution.

Monkey's Birthday and Other Stories
Author: Simon Crump
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
ISBN: 9780747557692
Category : Failure (Psychology)
Languages : en
Pages : 161
Book Description
In Monkey's Birthday we get to know the inhabitants of a street through their houses and the bizarre objects, memories and longings which furnish them. In English Electric Crump grips us with the tension of not quite knowing how the main character is linked to the death of a young girl. Early Doors is pure 'Carry On' where people really are disgusting and duplicitous; where people suffer the outrageous accidents that befall them; where people die and we feel bereft. In all three stories, when the hatchet falls, as it inevitably does, the strength of Crump's writing is confirmed by how deeply we care.

Now, their job complete, the other animals sweep Jim along, all the way to the dance floor. Jim is dipped, swayed, and twirled until he can't take it anymore--he just doesn't like to dance! When he lets everyone know, he's met with disbelief...until Water Buffalo reveals that he doesn't much care to dance, either. As more and more animals have the courage speak their truths, does this mean there's no place for them at this party?
