A visual anatomical reference for the genus Pongo

Focused on orangutan musculoskeletal anatomy, this atlas pairs photographs of anatomical structures with descriptive coverage and a substantial literature review. It maps variation within the genus Pongo while also recording the differing anatomical terms used across published sources, making synonymy part of the reference work rather than a peripheral detail. The book situates orangutan anatomy within comparative and functional questions, including homology, evolution, and connections to the musculoskeletal structures of modern humans. Its 160 pages are organized around close structural study rather than broad natural-history coverage.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Students and researchers in primatology, zoology, and physical anthropology
  • Comparative anatomy and functional morphology courses
  • Medical readers investigating musculoskeletal homology and variation

Book overview

The first photographic and descriptive musculoskeletal atlas of the genus Pongo, this book includes high-quality photographs of musculoskeletal structures and an extensive review of the literature. It covers the anatomical variations within orangutans and 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 and to medical students, doctors and researchers who are curious about the origin, evolution, homology and variations of the musculoskeletal structures of modern humans.
