Too usually primatological or anthropological court cases were heterogeneous, huge, unselective volumes that, a minimum of lately, have time and again misplaced cash for the publishing condominium (in occasionally marvelous amounts).

Correction for linear differences between young and adult was made, but not differences in the location of the centers of mass of each segment. Further, the differences in anteroposterior location between one young animal and another mature one represent the postulated shift within the individual from early to late in life. These data in a product of moments calculation (Miller and Nelson 1973) determine the position of the center of gravity. Results The transformation of the macaque body from a 250-g fetus to a 6- to 12-kg adult is presented step by step according to anatomical methods.
