Evolutionary Cell Processes in Primates
Explore the fascinating world of primate evolution with Evolutionary Cell Processes in Primates by Kathleen M. Pitirri. Published by Taylor & Francis Ltd in 2021, this hardback edition spans 260 pages and delves into the intricate cellular mechanisms that contribute to the unique adaptations of primates, particularly in locomotion, energetics, and diet.
In this insightful volume, Pitirri emphasizes the importance of genetic analysis and advanced visualization techniques for cells and tissues. By integrating evolutionary developmental biology (Evo-Devo) with cell biology, the book provides a comprehensive framework for addressing the pivotal questions surrounding primate evolution. Ideal for students, researchers, and anyone intrigued by zoology, this work is a must-read for understanding the evolutionary pathways that shape our closest relatives.
