The first photographic and descriptive musculoskeletal atlas of a baby gorilla, Baby Gorilla: Photographic and Descriptive Atlas of Skeleton, Muscles and Internal Organs, details the comparative and phylogenetic context of the gross anatomy and evolutionary history of the soft tissue morphology of modern humans and one of their closest relatives. With detailed high-quality photographs of musculoskeletal structures, it provides an updated review of the anatomical variations within gorillas as well as 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. 111 p.
