An obsession with apes leads a man on a quest to get out of his head and immerse himself in nature. But the ape encounters he experiences on five continents, with all their wondrous and terrifying moments, impact him in entirely unexpected ways. Pithecophilia gives readers insight into the early explorations of Africa and Asia, into our discovery of apes, the evolution of our understanding of them, and into conservation efforts to save them. The book also reveals what is unique about primates, and how, in many ways, they are windows into our own souls.
