The mysterious and often unpredictable world of primates is explained by Smithsonian scientists in a Q&A format.

How closely related are humans to other primates? How strong is a gorilla? Why do primates spend so much time grooming? Why can't apes talk? These and almost 100 other questions are addressed with clear, thorough answers. 99 color photographs.
