'War for the Planet of the Apes' is a cautionary allegory of our relationship with mother nature in general and the animals in particular. Also, this social fantasy seems to emphasize the theme of evolution. And the most astonishing thing about the Planet of the Apes movies is how deeply we are able to connect to these human-like creatures.Chimpanzee Caesar is unquestionably the star of 'Planet of the Apes' reboots due to his sharp intellect, leadership skills, and... Humanity (in its classical, positive meaning).But what do we know about apes who actually live on this one planet? Have you heard that apes are not monkeys? Why do orangutans develop cheek pads? Did you know that humans from a scientific point of view are great apes too? Download your copy now to learn more!

A major horror and fantasy sub-genre of cinema's first decades was that dealing with rampaging gorillas - either jungle-wild, circus-tamed or trained to serve wicked masters - killer apes, and a range of ape-human hybrids, either evolutionary "missing links" or creatures spawned by medical experimentation and radical surgeries. Inspirations for this genre came from both fantasy-horror literature and the populist cultural trope of gorillas as abductors and ravishers of human females, a fear which arose from early European expeditions into Africa. This idea found its apex expression in RKO's "King Kong" (1932) - with Fay Wray as the blonde snatched away by a giant ape - while its unspoken logical conclusion, a grotesque miscegenation of species, was shown in the infamous "Ingagi" (1931). Charles Gemora, Ray "Crash" Corrigan, Emil Van Horn and Hollywood's other delinquent gorilla men - seen in feature films, shorts and serials alike - persisted into the 1940s and only began to slow with the mass advent of colour cinema, marking the period up until 1949 as the golden age of beasts and beauties. This book documents that period with an annotated filmography of informative texts and a stunning array of over 150 rare film stills, many culled from the darkest depths of cine-archives and never published before either in books or online.

A unique, beautifully illustrated exploration of our fascination with our closest primate relatives, and the development of primatology as a discipline This insightful work is a compact but wide-ranging survey of humankind’s relationship to the great apes (chimpanzees, bonobos, gorillas, orangutans), from antiquity to the present. Replete with fascinating historical details and anecdotes, it traces twists and turns in our construction of primate knowledge over five hundred years. Chris Herzfeld outlines the development of primatology and its key players and events, including well-known long-term field studies, notably the pioneering work by women such as Jane Goodall, Dian Fossey, and Biruté Galdikas. Herzfeld seeks to heighten our understanding of great apes and the many ways they are like us. The reader will encounter apes living in human families, painting apes, apes who use American Sign Language, and chimpanzees who travelled in space. A philosopher and historian specializing in primatology, Herzfeld offers thought-provoking insights about our perceptions of apes, as well as the boundary between “human” and “ape” and what it means to be either.

Klappentext: The hard evidence amounted to a grainy photo published in a 1929 London newspaper. Sitting on a packing case, propped up with a large stick, was what purported to be the body of a giant ape - the "Mono Rey." It was said to have inhabited the dense jungles of northern Bolivia, around the Madidi river - but the last person to explore the region, the redoubtable Major Percy Harrison Fawcett back in the 1920s, had since disappeared without a trace. For Simon Chapman, however, the jungle is the only place to be, and the denser and more remote the better. Which is why Chapman, along with two eccentric companions, took an all-too-collapsible canoe into the swamps and rainforests of Bolivia to find the mythical monster of the Madidi. By turns gripping, comic, and touching, and with a superb awareness of the natural world, The Monster of the Madidi marks the debut of an exceptional new travel writer.

Some people lost their sense of proportion, others their sense of scale, but Simon Dykes, a middle-aged, successful London painter, has lost his sense of perspective in a most disturbing fashion. After a night of routine, pedestrian debauchery, traipsing from toilet to toilet, and imbibing a host of narcotics on the way, Simon wakes up cuddled in his girlfriend’s loving arms. Much to his dismay, however, his girlfriend has turned into a chimpanzee. To add insult to injury, the psychiatric crash team sent to deal with him as he flips his lid is also comprised of chimps. Indeed, the entire city is overrun by clever primates, who, when they are not jostling for position, grooming themselves, or mating some of the females, can be found driving Volvos, hanging out on street corners, and running the world. Nonetheless convinced that he is still a human, Simon is confined to the emergency psychiatric ward of Charing Cross Hospital, where he becomes the patient of Dr. Zack Busner, clinical psychologist, medical doctor, anti-psychiatrist, and former television personality—an expert at the height of his reign as alpha male. As Busner attempts to convince him that “everyone who is fully sentient in this world are chimpanzees,” Simon struggles with the horrifying delusion that he is really a human trapped in a chimp’s body. Written with the same brilliant satiric wit that has distinguised Self’s earlier fiction, Great Apes is a hilarious, often disturbing, and absolutely original take on man’s place in the evolutionary chain. In a strange and twisted tale that recalls Jonathan Swift and Franz Kafka’s Metamorphosis, Will Self’s comic genius is impossible to ignore.
