1938: Five hundred monkeys in India are rounded up, shipped across the world, and released on a remote, uninhabited Caribbean island. How do they organize themselves socially? Group wars, discrimination, and the abuse of power on one hand; and maternal love, solidarity, and respect for social hierarchy on the other. For better or worse, a society has been formed. Three renowned scientists -- a psychologist, a geneticist, and an evolutionary biologist -- scrutinize these primates of the Caribbean in order to gain insight into the origins of our own human society.
