This book is for scientists and everyone interested in how they work. The author spent forty years embedded with groups of scientists. His first study was of a troop of around 120 scientists - with a 50:50 sex ratio, including several breeding pairs - working at a research centre in the UK. Since then he has worked in a variety of industries observing troops of scientists held in institutions worldwide. From Scotland to Singapore, from Ireland to Pennsylvania. Thoroughly habituated to his presence, he was able to observe closely the scientific behaviours of scientists in naturalistic laboratory settings in a variety of wild habitats - including universities and industry, the public and private sectors. Apes in Lab Coats summarizes his detailed field observations and experimental studies of scientists.
