About the book

Pierre Boulle's Planet of the Apes follows space travellers who discover a world where intelligent apes dominate society and humans exist as primitive creatures. The reversal forces the visitors to reconsider assumptions about civilisation, intelligence and humanity's place in nature. The novel combines science fiction adventure with sharp satire and philosophical speculation.
