	abstract = {<p>Primate Sexuality is a uniquely comprehensive synthesis of our knowledge about the sexual behavior of primates. Alan Dixson reviews and integrates both the evolutionary biology and the physiological basis of sexual behaviour across the whole spectrum of primates, from prosimians to humans.<br />
Covering almost every aspect of primate sexuality, the book begins with an analysis of the history of research into primate sexual behaviour. A number of chapters discuss the complex array of mating systems exhibited by primates, and the bewildering range of tactics which influence sexual interactions within mating systems, and, ultimately, reproductive success. Sex selection, sperm competition, and the evolution of sexual dimorphism are explored. Primate Sexuality provides an authoritative and comprehensive synthesis of current research on the evolution and physiological control of sexual behaviour in the primates - prosimians, monkeys, apes, and human beings. This new edition has been fully updated and greatly expanded throughout to incorporate a decade of new research findings. It maintains the depth and scientific rigour of the first edition, and includes a new chapter on human sexuality, written from a comparative perspective. It contains 2600 references, almost 400 figures and photographs, and 73 tables.</p>
