Book Reviews of Bonobo: The Forgotten Ape

Book Review: Beautiful and Revealing-
Summary: 5 Stars

The hardback version of Bonobo: The Forgotten Ape is memorable for its beautiful photography and courageous subject matter. Suitable for display, discretion may be called for in the "coffee table" method of sharing this book. Not every guest will appreciate their child thumbing through your volume to find pictures of sexually occupied simians- nor may you be pleased at having this masterful study of primate behavior snickered over by teenagers. For mature individuals interested in natural behavior within species, this is a must-have book.
