From Genes to Animal Behavior: Social Structures, Personalities, Communication by Color

T. K. Lim explores the intricate relationship between genetics and animal behavior, particularly within primate species. Delving into how social structures and individual personalities shape these creatures’ interactions, the author offers a nuanced perspective on behavioral diversity. The work emphasizes the roles that genetic predispositions play in forming social hierarchies and fostering unique personality traits, highlighting the complexities that arise from evolutionary pressures.

Additionally, the book investigates the fascinating aspects of communication, specifically focusing on color cues in social interactions among primates. Lim's insights shed light on how these visual signals can convey vital information, further enriching the understanding of social dynamics in animal communities. Through a blend of scientific research and real-world observations, this work provides readers with a comprehensive look at the remarkable ways in which genetics influences behavior and communication in the animal kingdom.
