Careful What You Wish For
Be careful what you wish for - you might just get it. Tiffany Samuels doesn't believe in love - it's a distraction that, in her experience, rarely ends well. If she does eventually decide to settle down, she'll approach the subject in the same way that she approaches any project - methodically with a list of required criteria. So when travel writer Jake Stewart crosses her path, while Tiff is tempted, she knows that he meets none of her requirements. One night, she figures, maybe two, is all she needs to shake him out of her system. Jake, though, has other ideas - and for once Tiff isn't in control.

Primate Origins: Adaptations and Evolution
This book provides a novel focus on adaptive explanations for cranial and postcranial features and functional complexes, socioecological systems, life history patterns, etc. in early primates. It further offers a detailed rendering of the phylogenetic affinities of such basal taxa to later primate clades as well as to other early/recent mammalian orders. In addition to the strictly paleontological or systemic questions regarding Primate Origins, the editors concentrate on the adaptive significance of primate characteristics. Thus, the book provides the broadest possible perspective on early primate phylogeny and the adaptive uniqueness of the Order Primates.
