| Emory Unviersity. We are deeply grateful to all of these institutions and to the people who represent them for their generous support. |
| Support from our colleagues in the study of primate cognition has been extremely generous as well. Most important, a number of colleagues have read protions of the manuscript and provided useful suggestions and criticisms. We thank those who read large portions of the manuscript and in some cases, the whole manuscript: Dorothy Cheney, Andy Whiten, Daniel Povinelli, Elisabetta Visalberghi, Dario Maestripieri, Filippo Aureli, and an anonymous reviewer for Oxford University Press. We also thank those who read selected chapters: Frans de Waal, Harold Gouzoules, Dick Byrne, Roger Thomas, Patrizia Poti, Giovanna Spinozzi, Sue Boinski, and Philippe Rochat. We extend out sincerest gratitude to all these colleagues for their time and expertise, which improved the final product immensely. We of course hold none of them responsible for any errors or omissions that may remain. |
| We would also like to thank our many colleagues who shared with us their pictures, diagrams, figures, and tables as illustrations for the book. There persons are acknowledged officially in the appropriate places, but we would like to single out for their generosity Mike Seres, Frank Kiernan, Frans de Waal, Tetsuro Matsuzawa, Roger Thomas, Sally Boysen, Andy Whiten, Dick Byrne, Elisabetta Visalberghi, Daniel Povinelli, Sue Savage-Rumbaugh, Craig Stanford, Harold Gouzoules, and Duane Rumbaugh. Thanks also to Jaime Call Bonet for his line drawings of primates and to Victor Balaban for his photographs of children. |
| Finally, we are also grateful to very professional editors and production staff at the Oxford University Press, including especially MaryBeth Branigan who produced the book and Joan Bossert who oversaw the project from start to finish with great skill and care. |
