All modern humans use tools to overcome limitations of our anatomy and to make difficult tasks easier. However, if tool use is such an advantage, we may ask why it is not evolved to the same degree in other species. To answer this question, we need to bring a long-term perspective to the material record of other members of our own order, the Primates.

Topics in Cognitive Science, 2010
As the cognitive revolution was slow to come to the study of animal behavior, the vast majority of what we know about primate cognition has been discovered in the last 30 years. Building on the recognition that the physical and social worlds of humans and their living primate relatives pose many of the same evolutionary challenges, programs of research

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Small Animal Practice, 1994
This article is an introduction to pet nonhuman primates and includes a discussion of basic life history and physiologic parameters of the most common pet species, diet and husbandry guidelines, and resources for further information for both the pet owner and the veterinarian. Preventive health care is emphasized, including diagnostic tests that should

Abstract Living primates comprise an order of placental mammals characterized by forward facing eyes, a petrosal-derived auditory bulla, grasping hands and feet, nails instead of claws, a large brain relative to body size, and a slow life history (1). 7ere are over 350 extant primate species (Fig. 1).

Current Rheumatology Reports, 2005
Spondyloarthropathy is a common occurrence in Old World primates, with only limited presence in New World monkeys. Clearly distinguished from rheumatoid arthritis, this erosive arthritis afflicts 20% of great apes, baboons, and rhesus macaques and had been increasing in frequency.

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2001
This article provides an update on some of the recent advances in primate anesthesia. It focuses in particular on some of the newest information available regarding the effects of opioids and alpha-2 agonists in primates, and how these effects are different from what we might expect in other companion animals. It reviews the important properties of the

Forests without primates: Primate/plant codependency
American Journal of Primatology, 1998Detailed studies of primates and fruiting trees have illustrated that these groups of organisms are involved in a very complex set of interactions, with primates relying on fruiting trees as important food resources and fruiting trees relying on frugivores for seed dispersal.

A particular interest in primate genetics was fueled by the release of the complete human genome sequence drafts reported in 2001 by the IHGSC and Celera Genomics. Postgenomic comparative analyses based on the complete genome sequence of the mouse started focusing on functional, evolutionary and diversity aspects of human DNA.

Studies dealing with the development of myopia in primates are considered as they contribute to our understanding of myopia. Myopia appears to develop in two stages. The first is a lenticular change in eyes which have been focused at nearpoint for long periods; the lens remains continuously accommodated.
