Cooperative breeding refers to a social system in which individuals
other than the parents provide care for the offspring. Since
individuals delay breeding and invest in the offspring of others,
cooperative breeding poses a challenge to a Darwinian explanation
of the evolution of social behaviour. The contributors to this book
explore the evolutionary, ecological, behavioural and physiological
basis of cooperative breeding in mammals. The book contains a
collection of chapters by the leading researchers in the field, and
it is dedicated exclusively to the study of mammalian cooperative
breeding. It will appeal to zoologists, ecologists, evolutionary
biologists, and to those interested in animal behaviour.
