INTERNATIONAL DIRECTORY OF PRIMATOLOGY

The Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center, University of Wisconsin, Madison, announces the publication of the second edition of the International Directory of Primatology. The purpose of the directory is to enhance communications among organizations and individuals involved in primate research, conservation and education. It can be used by primatologists as a desktop working tool or by educators, librarians, students and the general public as a guide to primate programs and information resources.

The directory is divided into four organizational sections and five indexes. The organizational sections (1) geographically arranged entries for major primate centers, laboratories, educational programs, foundations, conservation agencies and sanctuaries, (2) groups involved with non-human primate population management, (3) professional primate societies, including the membership roster of the International Primatological Society, and (4) major information resources in the field. Access to this information is supported by organizational, field site, species, subject and name indexes.

Copies of the 1994 International Directory of Primatology, 2nd edition (354 pp., spiral bound) are available in the USA for $ 15 each, or in other countries for $ 23 each (US). Theses prices include postage and handling. Electronic mail and phone orders are welcome.
