“分析文字是學者的基本訓練。但靈長類是著重視覺的動物,我們常用圖騰來象徵各種歷史與宗教理念的意涵。科學插圖不是用來裝飾文章或是文章的總結,而是思考的焦點。 (史蒂芬, 古德-哈佛大學古生物學家)”
“Scholars are trained to analyze words. But primates are visual animals, and the key to concepts and their history often lies in iconography. Scientific illustrations are not frills or summaries; they are the foci for modes of thought.” (Stephen Jay Gould Paleontologist Harvard University)
