Advances in the Study of Behavior continues to serve scientists
across a wide spectrum of disciplines. Focusing on new theories and
research developments with respect to behavioral ecology,
evolutionary biology, and comparative psychology, these volumes
serve to foster cooperation and communication in these diverse
fields. Volume 23 focuses on research on the lower vertebrates with
respect to the functional significance of different breeding
strategies, the level at which natural selection acts, methods of
teasing apart the genetic control of behavior, the assumptions
underlying models of territoriality, and signalling systems and the
sensory mechanisms on which they depend.
Advances in the Study of Behavior is the leading series in its
field. Each volume includes a variety of review essays by experts
providing authoritative overviews of key areas of current interest
that are invaluable to the teacher, student, and researcher in the
field of behavior, whether psychologist or biologist. This volume
continues the tradition of excellence in the study of behavior by
covering a whole range of biological and psychological research.
Each of the chapters presents new ideas, with a particularly
interesting approach to sexual coercion. The volume as a whole has
a particular strength in the area of behavioral development, which
is the main topic of the last three chapters.
Advances in the Study of Behavior remains one of the most-turned-to
sources for penetrating insight on the latest findings in behavior
research. This serial has kept pace with the vigorous
multidisciplinary growth of the field and covers all major aspects,
from ecology to endocrinology, in both human and animal subjects.
Critical reviews, presentations of major research programs, and
communication of significant new concepts provide readers with an
up-to-date overview of the latest developments in this field.
The series does not focus narrowly on one or a few fields, but
features articles covering the best behavioral work from a wide
spectrum. The skill and concepts of scientists in such diverse
fields necessarily differ, making the task of developing
cooperation and communication among them a difficult one. But it is
one that is of great importance, and one to which the editors and
publisher of Advances in the Study of Behavior are committed. Each
volume of Advances in the Study of Behavior contains an index, and
each chapter includes references.
