Richly illustrated, and with an eye to both proximate and ultimate inquiry, Animal Behavior covers the broad sweep of the subject from its neurological underpinnings to the importance of behavior in conservation. The authors bring nearly 60 years of combined experience as university professors to this textbook, much of that teaching this subject. Animal Behavior includes an entire chapter devoted to the vibrant new field of behavior and conservation; topics such as social behavior and the relationship between parasites, pathogens, and behavior receive thoughtful coverage, along with areas that are routinely found in animal behavior textbooks, such as foraging behavior, mating and parenting behavior, anti-predator behavior, learning, and more.
This text addresses the physiological foundations of behavior in a way that is both accessible and inviting. Each chapter begins with learning objectives and concludes with thought-provoking questions; special terms and definitions are highlighted throughout. Animal Behavior provides a rich resource for students (and professors) from a wide range of life science disciplines.

After receiving my PhD from the University of Kansas in 1977, I came to Colorado to work as a faculty member at the University of Colorado, Boulder, where I have been ever since. I am currently a Professor in the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, and I teach courses in general biology, animal behavior, insect biology, and tropical biology. My research program focuses on the behavior and ecology of social insects, and I have worked on ants, bees, and wasps. I have studied the nestmate recognition, the genetics of colony defense, the behavior of defensive bees, and communication during colony defense. I was Executive Editor of Animal Behaviour from 2006-2009.
