Résumé :
|
This edition looks again at the influence of natural selection on behaviour - an animal's struggle to survive by exploiting resources, avoiding predators, and maximizing reproductive success. In this edition, new examples are introduced throughout, many illustrated with full colour photographs. In addition, important new topics are added including the latest techniques of comparative analysis; the theory and application of DNA fingerprinting techniques; extensive new discussion on brood parasite/host co-evolution; the latest ideas on sexual selection in relation to disease resistance; and a new section on the intentionality of communication.
