The Routledge International Handbook of Comparative Psychology is
an international reference work that offers scientists and students
a balanced overview of current research in the field of comparative
psychology and animal behavior. The book takes an integrative
approach to animal behavior, with most of the chapters discussing
research involving both proximate (developmental and mechanistic)
and ultimate (functional and phylogenetic) levels of analysis.
Chapters cover the major ideas of core topics in the field and
examine emerging research trends to provide readers deeper
understanding of these ideas. One of the strengths of this book is
its the coverage of core topics in comparative psychology and
animal behavior from different - and diverse - perspectives. The
diverse perspectives come from the wide range of focal species
studied by chapter authors, a range traditionally quite atypical
for comparative psychology, and from the widespread international
representation of the authors and the diversity of departments and
research centers at which these authors work in. The first part of
the Handbook examines historical and foundational principles and
theories in the field. The second part focuses on individual
behavior systems. The final part of the book is devoted to a
diversity of ideas that extend our understanding of behavior into
new directions. The Routledge International Handbook of Comparative
Psychology is an essential resource for advanced undergraduate and
graduate students, postdoctoral researchers, and established
academics, as well as others who are interested in comparative
psychology and animal behavior.
