Riassunto

The importance of female choice in the evolution and social structure of a species has only emerged in the last 30 some years from the obscurity into which Darwin and other early theorists cast it. Small (anthopology, Cornell U.) draws on first hand observation of mating strategies of non-human female primates, revealing them as highly sexual, and far from passive receptors of male advances. She discusses human behavior in the final chapter; her insights are readable and often witty. Charmingly illustrated by the author's sister. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
