2000014891Princeton University Press 2000. Octavo pp xvi 362 paperback a very good copy as new. Although there is extensive literature in the field of behavioral ecology that attempts to explain foraging of individuals social foraging-the ways in which animals search and compete for food in groups-has been relatively neglected. This book redresses that situation by providing both a synthesis of the existing literature and a new theory of social foraging. Giraldeau and Caraco develop models informed by game theory that offer a new framework for analysis. Social Foraging Theory contains the most comprehensive theoretical approach to its subject coupled with quantitative methods that will underpin future work in the field. The new models and approaches that are outlined here will encourage new research directions and applications. To date the analysis of social foraging has lacked unifying themes clear recognition of the problems inherent in the study of social foraging and consistent interaction between theory and experiments. This book identifies social foraging as an economic interaction between the actions of individuals and those of other foragers. This interdependence raises complex questions about the size of foraging groups the diversity of resources used and the propensity of group members to exploit each other or forage cooperatively. The models developed in the book will allow researchers to test their own approaches and predictions. Many years in development Social Foraging Theory will interest researchers and graduate students in such areas as behavioral ecology population ecology evolutionary biology and wildlife management.

1975017329Berlin Heidelberg New York: Springer-Verlag 1975. Illustrated with charts and diagrams large octavo pp xiv 337 fore-edge slightly foxed very slightly used internally a neat name and date on the front endpaper decorated boards slightly worn and bumped the spine faded. Animals are important components of any ecosystem and it is impossible to describe structure and functioning of the Fennoscandian tundra ecosystems without including this part of the system. However the strong diversity between functionally highly different fauna groups makes it impossible to study all groups in great detail with the funds and expertise available in Fennoscandia. Relatively few productivity studies were carried out on animals in Fenno scandian tundra regions before the IBP projects started in 1969-1970. Within IBP more fauna groups have been investigated in the Norwegian tundra project than in the other countries due to better financial support. Even in Norway however only a limited number of invertebrate and vertebrate taxons is studied. General lack of information on the same animals in various parts of the Fennoscandian tundra makes it more difficult to present structural and functional comparisons of fauna for the whole region than in plants and microorganisms see Part 1 of Fennoscandian Tundra Ecosystems. Brief surveys on faunal problems within the area are given in the introduction to the animal section and general aspects are also discussed in the four first papers of the volume. First Edition. Boards. Good. Springer-Verlag Hardcover
