Baboon Metaphysics is #2

arwin’s quote, “he who understands baboons would do more towards metaphysics than Locke,” was the original inspiration behind Dorothy L. Cheney and Robert M. Seyfarth’s book Baboon Metaphysics, which recently was named runner up in the Bookseller/Diagram Prize for Oddest Title of the Year. The book was published by the University of Chicago Press. Personally, I would have cast my vote for Baboon Metaphysics over the winner, The 2009-2014 World Outlook for 60-Milligram Containers of Fromage Frais, which wasn’t written by “actual humans.”
