Jim Ottaviani returns with an action-packed account of the three
greatest primatologists of the last century: Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey,
and Biruté Galdikas. These three ground-breaking researchers were all
students of the great Louis Leakey, and each made profound contributions
to primatology--and to our own understanding of ourselves.
Tackling Goodall, Fossey, and Galdikas in turn, and covering the
highlights of their respective careers, Primates is an accessible,
entertaining, and informative look at the field of primatology and at
the lives of three of the most remarkable women scientists of the
twentieth century. Thanks to the charming and inviting illustrations by
Maris Wicks, this is a nonfiction graphic novel with broad appeal.
