Description
What counts as nature in the late twentieth century?
How do we create scientific disciplines and histories of science?
How are the issues of race and gender written into the ways we imagine the natural world?
Why do we study animals? These fundamental questions are at the heart of primatology - the study of monkeys and apes - in the twentieth century.
In Primate Visions historians of biology Donna Haraway builds the primate story - our scientific understanding of apes, monkeys, and humans - and explains its multi-cultural roots, its myths, its relation to gender and race.
