Photographic and Descriptive Musculoskeletal Atlas of Orangutans - with notes on the attachments, variations, innervations, function and synonymy and weight of the muscles

The first photographic and descriptive musculoskeletal atlas of the genus Pongo, this book includes high-quality photographs of musculoskeletal structures and an extensive review of the literature. It covers the anatomical variations within orangutans and an extensive list of the synonyms used in the literature to designate the structures discussed. It will be of interest to students, teachers and researchers studying primatology, comparative anatomy, functional morphology, zoology, and physical anthropology and to medical students, doctors and researchers who are curious about the origin, evolution, homology and variations of the musculoskeletal structures of modern humans.
