Editor-in-Chief for International Journal of Primatology<br>
Dr. Joanna Setchell,<br>
<br>
I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to share an exciting<br>
milestone in the field of primatology and anthropology, which I believe<br>
will be of significant interest to your readership.<br>
<br>
Since 1983, our team has been conducting extensive research on wild<br>
bonobos in the Wamba region of the Democratic Republic of the Congo.<br>
This year marks the 50th anniversary of our continuous study, a journey<br>
that has led to numerous insights into the behavior and ecology of these<br>
fascinating primates. To commemorate this milestone, we have published a<br>
book titled "Bonobos and People at Wamba: 50 Years of Research" with<br>
Springer.<br>
<br>
This comprehensive volume brings together reviews from most of the<br>
Japanese and Western researchers who have worked in Wamba, each<br>
contributing their expertise on various themes. The book offers an<br>
exhaustive understanding not only of the bonobos at Wamba but also<br>
provides comparative insights with other bonobo and chimpanzee research<br>
sites, as well as the local community's lifestyle and culture.<br>
Particularly noteworthy are the final two chapters by Richard Wrangham<br>
and Takeshi Furuichi, which synthesize and discuss the various<br>
hypotheses proposed over the years regarding bonobo evolution.<br>
<br>
Having published articles related to bonobos in your esteemed journal,<br>
we view this book as a culmination of our research efforts. We would be<br>
honored if you could consider featuring a review of our book in your<br>
journal.<br>
<br>
A PDF version of the book is available for download at the following<br>

Should you require a printed copy, we are more than willing to arrange<br>
for one to be sent to you.<br>
<br>
We look forward to the possibility of our book being introduced to your<br>
readers and hope it contributes to further understanding and<br>
appreciation of bonobos and their conservation.<br>
