Animal behaviour is a broad discipline with investigators and contributions from diverse perspectives, including anthropology, comparative psychology, ecology, physiology and zoology. This book, for a one-semester introductory course, uses evolutionary principles as a unifying theme to expose students to a number of approaches to the field of animal behaviour. The authors also show that the varied perspectives used to study behaviour are complementary and often integrated rather than mutually exclusive. The sustitle "Mechanisms, Ecology and Evolution" reflects the book's theme. Greater detail has been added where necessary to clarify key topics, such as genes and evolution, applied animal behaviour, and neuronal and sensory mechanisms. Features include several new boxed essays, updating to examples and references, a new interior design, and new and revised photos and art figures throughout the text. Teaching aids include: chapter outlines; end-of-chapter summary; discussion questions; suggested readings and full glossary and references section at the end of the text.
