The Altruism Equation: Seven Scientists Search for the Origins of Goodness
ISBN: 9780691125909 / Angielski / Twarda / 2006 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In a world supposedly governed by ruthless survival of the fittest, why do we see acts of goodness in both animals and humans? This problem plagued Charles Darwin in the 1850s as he developed his theory of evolution through natural selection. Indeed, Darwin worried that the goodness he observed in nature could be the Achilles heel of his theory. Ever since then, scientists and other thinkers have engaged in a fierce debate about the origins of goodness that has dragged politics, philosophy, and religion into what remains a major question for evolutionary biology.

Cooperation Among Animals: An Evolutionary Perspective
ISBN: 9780195086225 / Angielski / Miękka / 1997 / 240 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Despite the depiction of nature "red in tooth and claw," cooperation is actually widespread in the animal kingdom. Various types of cooperative behaviors have been documented in everything from insects to primates, and in every imaginable ecological scenario. Yet why animals cooperate is still a hotly contested question in literature on evolution and animal behavior.
This book examines the history surrounding the study of cooperation, and proceeds to examine the conceptual, theoretical and empirical work on this fascinating subject. Early on, it outlines the four different categories of... Despite the depiction of nature "red in tooth and claw," cooperation is actually widespread in the animal kingdom.

The Prince of Evolution: Peter Kropotkin's Adventures in Science and Politics
ISBN: 9781461180173 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) In "The Prince of Evolution," Lee Alan Dugatkin introduces the reader to Russian Prince Peter Kropotkin -- one of the world's first international celebrities. In England Kropotkin was known as a brilliant scientist, famous for his work on animal and human cooperation, but Kropotkin's fame in continental Europe centered more on his role as a founder of anarchism. In the United States, he pursued both passions. Tens of thousands of people followed Prince Peter during two speaking tours that took him around America. Kropotkin's path to fame was labyrinthine, with asides in prisons, breathtaking...

Model Systems in Behavioral Ecology: Integrating Conceptual, Theoretical, and Empirical Approaches
ISBN: 9780691006536 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 576 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) A key way that behavioral ecologists develop general theories of animal behavior is by studying one species or a closely related group of species--''model systems''--over a long period. This book brings together some of the field's most respected researchers to describe why they chose their systems, how they integrate theoretical, conceptual, and empirical work, lessons for the practice of the discipline, and potential avenues of future research. Their model systems encompass a wide range of animals and behavioral issues, from dung flies to sticklebacks, dolphins to African wild dogs, from...

Game Theory and Animal Behavior
ISBN: 9780195137903 / Angielski / Miękka / 2000 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) Game theory has revolutionized the study of animal behavior. The fundamental principle of evolutionary game theory--that the strategy adopted by one individual depends on the strategies exhibited by others--has proven a powerful tool in uncovering the forces shaping otherwise mysterious behaviors. In this volume, the first since 1982 devoted to evolutionary game theory, leading researchers describe applications of the theory to diverse types of behavior, providing an overview of recent discoveries and a synthesis of current research. The volume begins with a clear introduction to game theory...
