Description

Essential Animal Behavior provides a comprehensive introduction to all areas of animal behaviour, from genetic and neurobiological control to learning, development, and function in an evolutionary context. This concise and engaging book covers social behaviour and includes examples from both marine and terrestrial environments around the world.

Written for students coming to the subject for the first time, the book features key points, chapter summaries, guided reading, case studies, and questions for discussion to aid revision and further study. It also places current research alongside classic examples, highlighting the implications for animal welfare and conservation.

This book is a valuable resource for degree-level students studying biology, zoology, marine biology, or psychology, particularly those following modular programs.
