Editorial Reviews
Dorothy Cheney, Science
In its treatment of primate behavior, Hrdy's book has no peers...[It is] a fascinating account of the selective pressures that have shaped the behavior of males and females.

Joan B. Silk, Ethnology and Sociology
It is an understatement to say that this is a provocative essay. Although the book is written for a general audience, it will compel specialists to reconsider any of their assumptions about the evolution of primate females. Those interested in evolutionary influences upon human social behavior will be stimulated and challenged. Undoubtedly, many of the hypotheses will be controversial, and some may be disturbing.
