内容简介 Principles of Animal Behavior, the highly anticipated contemporary text from Professor Lee Alan Dugatkin, takes a uniquely integrative approach to animal behavior. Professor Dugatkin creates a balanced discussion in several ways: by recognizing genetic evolution as the primary force underlying animal behavior while also discussing the role of learning and cultural transmission, by placing equal emphasis on theory and empirical work, by employing a diverse group of case studies, and by covering both vertebrates and invertebrates extensively. Principles of Animal Behavior also features exclusive interviews with leading scholars and researchers, lively prose, and a vivid art program, ensuring that it will be a welcome addition to the field.
作者简介 Lee Alan Dugatkin is professor of biology at the University of Louisville and is known for his research on the evolution of behavior. He has written numerous articles for such journals as Nature, The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, and Proceedings of the Royal Society. He is the author of many books, including Cooperation Among Animals (Oxford University Press) and The Altruism Equation (Princeton University Press).
