Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on a biological approach to animal social behavior, this book emphasizes careful observation of natural phenomena and a balanced study of function, causation, and evolution. It explores various aspects of animal behavior, including mating, fighting, and social structures, while addressing complex issues like intraspecific fighting and courtship behavior. The author, a Nobel Prize-winning ethologist, aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of these behaviors in the context of their ecological significance and evolutionary implications.
