Cephalopod Behaviour Second edition Roger T. Hanlon
Play, Playfulness, Creativity and Innovation Patrick Bateson University of Cambridge
Marine Biological Laboratory, Massachusetts
and Paul Martin
and John B. Messenger
Wolfson College, Cambridge
University of Cambridge
What role does playful behaviour take in animal and human development? Unravelling the different meanings of ‘play’, this book focuses on playful and non-aggressive behaviour in both animals and humans. The authors emphasise its significance for development, before examining the importance of playfulness to creativity and, in turn, to innovation.
As the study of cephalopod behaviour continues to fascinate biologists, this second edition reviews data from more than five hundred papers published since the original 1996 edition. Extensively illustrated, it discusses the causation, function, development and evolution of cephalopod behaviour, inviting students to explore the subject further. ‘A treasure trove of information on the cognitively most advanced invertebrates on earth. This new edition is the update every marine biologist and diver has been waiting for. The last few decades have given us many new findings and insights, which are all covered here. This overview of the cephalopods by two of the world’s foremost experts, ranges from their phylogeny, sensory systems and physiology to behaviour, communication and ecology. It is highly readable and beautifully illustrated to boot.’ Frans de Waal, author of Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? ‘Written by two of the leaders in cephalopod research, this book is even better than the first edition. It is a ‘must have’ not just for scientists but for everyone who is interested in these amazing animals.’ Nicola S.

‘In this highly readable and thoughtprovoking book, Patrick Bateson and Paul Martin show how play helps animals to find novel solutions and sows the evolutionary seeds for human creativity. They argue that being able to ‘break the rules’ in a protected environment, which is what play does, generates new ideas (creativity) and new ways of doing things (innovation). By looking at the conditions in which humans are at their most creative, they make a major contribution to what we might do to be even more creative than we are.’ Marian Stamp Dawkins, University of Oxford, and co-author of An Introduction to Animal Behaviour (2012) ‘This groundbreaking work will inform, engage and please an extensive audience, from play scholars and naturalists to those seeking an improved basis for practical approaches to social questions. The book’s originality, common-sense foundation, clear and readable language, and pragmatism are all commendable. The authors, succeed in drawing bold distinctions when necessary and in forthrightly addressing concerns that span a broad range of social issues. The book’s main themes are woven together to produce a work of great general interest.’ Robert M.

Comparative Cognition Mary C. Olmstead and Valerie A. Kuhlmeier
Wetland Functioning amidst Mountains and Glaciers
Queen’s University, Ontario
An undergraduate introduction to cognitive processes across species, integrating classic studies and contemporary research in psychology, biology and neuroscience. Active, engaged learning is encouraged through feature boxes, giving a deeper understanding of topics discussed in the main text. These are supported by end-ofchapter questions and further reading sections. ‘Comparative Cognition provides a clear and comprehensive review and an engaging synthesis of the key topics in this rapidly developing field. Like the other classic textbooks on animal cognition this book integrates knowledge of experimental psychology and evolutionary biology, reflecting the roots of this discipline in comparative psychology and ethology. It also contains a number of novel features, with its enhanced emphasis on both evolutionary function and the underlying neural mechanisms. These include feature boxes that describe key concepts in more detail, and researcher profiles that capture the contribution of some of the major figureheads in the field. A particular highlight is the series of questions at the end of each chapter, which encourage students to think more deeply about the issues raised, and to design experiments to test the competing hypotheses.’ Nicola S. Clayton, University of Cambridge ‘This book is recommended for library purchases in the life and evolutionary sciences, animal minds, cognitive neurosciences, and the philosophy of mind. I would also like to note that the many detailed neuro-anatomical and evolution-related drawings are alone worth the price of this volume. They are some of the clearest and thought-out technical drawings I have ever seen and will engage the eye at length.’ Paul Tibbetts, The Quarterly Review of Biology

Comparative Social Evolution Edited by Dustin R. Rubenstein Columbia University, New York
and Patrick Abbot Vanderbilt University, Tennessee
Bringing together the principle taxonomic groups, from ants to primates, this volume provides a unique perspective on the evolution of cooperative group living. The chapters synthesize features of animal social life to foster the development of a framework for a common, trait-based approach towards social synthesis. ‘This authoritative book will be an excellent resource for all students of social evolution, including practised hands and those yet to take the stage. Covering all the major groups of social organisms in both the invertebrates and vertebrates, its expert authors systematically set out the social and associated traits of their favoured taxa. A tight editorial structure ensures a uniformity of approach that readers, typically familiar with just one or a few groups but eager to broaden their outlook, will greatly appreciate. In their closing synthesis, the editors describe the book as a ‘starting point’ for the comparative social evolutionary studies of the future. It will surely help stimulate a renaissance in such studies, but the editors are too modest; they and the authors have already performed an admirable service to the discipline in bringing together such a rich synthesis of information and insight.’ Andrew Bourke, University of East Anglia ‘Comparative Social Evolution provides a unique attempt to identify contrasts and similarities in the distribution and evolution of social behaviour in different groups of animals. Successive chapters describe the structure of social groups in different taxa, ranging from aphids to primates, and their relationship to variation in life history parameters, breeding systems and genetic structure, each written by leading researchers in their field. By synthesizing current knowledge of the distribution of social behaviour and its correlates in different groups, Comparative Social Evolution lays the foundation for attempts to build a general framework capable of explaining the diversity of animal societies.’ Tim Clutton-Brock, University of Cambridge

The approach is integrative, covering fields from ecology to neuroscience and chemistry. ‘Revised and extended since the first edition, this splendid, comprehensive resource covers both ‘classic’ ideas in the field of chemical communication as well as recent advances … The attractive cover … hints at some of the delights to be found inside with the content aimed at both the serious researcher and those just wanting a good overview of the discipline. All in all, an outstanding textbook and a worthy winner of this year’s Society of Biology Book Prize (postgraduate category).’ Judges, 2014 Society of Biology Book Awards ‘Tristram D. Wyatt’s Pheromones and Animal Behavior takes us on an interdisciplinary voyage along one of the most ancient communication channels. He explores, in depth, how chemical signals and signature mixtures shape social interactions, and why. I enjoyed his writing style, which also makes the book accessible to non-specialists. This excellent second edition is heavily revised and enriched. It unravels some of the mysteries of the world of pheromones, explaining what they are, their origins, functions, evolution, and the communication purposes they serve in a large variety of animals.

EVOLUTIONARY BIOLOGY Deep Homology? Uncanny Similarities of Humans and Flies Uncovered by Evo-Devo
Lewis I. Held, Jr Texas Tech University
This book provides a comparison of the genetic circuits of Homo sapiens and Drosophila melanogaster to reveal the evidence for deep homology, from the field of evolutionary developmental biology. Individual body parts including the nervous system, limbs and heart are compared in chapters that also feature concept maps and encyclopaedic tables to aid learning. ‘The book is a great learning tool and valuable resource for students and researchers in the field of developmental genetics and evolutionary biology. The author, himself an expert in Drosophila development, gives an in depth overview of the research into how genes control the processes by which simple embryos turn into complex organisms. He draws out in a clear and concise manner the parallels that unite all animals in regard to developmental mechanisms and the underlying gene networks. The way it is conceived the book follows a novel and highly original approach, by directly drawing comparisons between known gene functions and mutant phenotypes in fruit flies and clinical syndromes caused by mutations in homologous genes in humans. As a result, Deep Homology? … will be a relevant and inspiring read for a broad readership interested in the biological underpinnings of human health and disease.’ Volker Hartenstein, University of California, Los Angeles ‘Deep Homology? explores a deep truth. There is a kinship between human bodies and the bodies of flies. Way down at the level of the genes, our family likenesses are incredibly intricate, interesting, and instructive. To trace these resemblances is to discover (among other things) the ghostly image of our lost common ancestor, which lived six hundred million years ago. Lewis I. Held, Jr lays out all of the details, the nuts and bolts of what we know and what we don’t, with great charm and enthusiasm. The picture is complex. It is also beautifully simple, as William Blake understood when he wrote ‘The Fly.’ ‘Am not I /a fly like thee? /Or art not thou /a fly like me?’ Jonathan Weiner, Author of Time, Love, Memory 2017 247 x 174 mm 290pp 27 b/w illus. 45 tables 978-1-107-14718-8 Hardback £59.99 / US$74.99 978-1-316-60121-1 Paperback £29.99 / US$39.99 For all formats available, see

Evolutionary Biology
Understanding Evolution Kostas Kampourakis Université de Genève
Presenting evolution as straightforward and intuitive, this book covers core concepts of evolution and clarifies both what evolution is about and why so many people find it difficult to understand. Targeted to undergraduates embarking on any natural science degree as well as anyone wanting a basic introduction to evolutionary biology. ‘This is not just another book about why an evolutionary perspective on life is scientific whereas a Creationist perspective is not. In this well-articulated and thought-provoking book, Kostas Kampourakis asks why so many people reject evolution, despite the evidence for it and its enormous explanatory power. Kampourakis addresses the question of the acceptance of evolution from a psychological point of view, convincingly demonstrating that it is a rather counter-intuitive idea: conceptual obstacles to understanding, and thus accepting, evolution are rooted in widespread intuitions related to teleology and essentialism, which generate unwarranted preconceptions about the nature of the world and life. Kampourakis’ final suggestion is that one should try to understand evolutionary theory without worrying about its religious, metaphysical, or other implications.’ Alessandro Minelli, Università degli Studi di Padova, Italy ‘It is terrific, well written, thoughtful, balanced, and very didactic.’ Francisco J.

PRIMATOLOGY HIGHLIGHT
Wild Chimpanzees Social Behavior of an Endangered Species
Adam Clark Arcadi Cornell University, New York
Offering a portrait of the social behavior and conservation status of our nearest primate relatives, this book summarizes findings from seven long-term field studies. The chapters cover a range of behaviors, from cooperative lethal aggression to communication and culture, making it an ideal resource for both students and researchers. ‘… the first book to compile the available information about field studies of wild chimpanzees. To do so has required an immense effort on the part of the author, Adam Clark Arcadi. The long-term field studies at Gombe, Kibale, Budongo, Mahale, Bossou, and Tai, together with a large number of shorter term studies, are synthesised on a topic by topic basis. This gives the reader an overall perspective of wild chimpanzees which has hitherto been lacking. We see many features of behaviour and social organisation that all chimps have in common. And we also see ecological and cultural differences between different chimp communities across Africa. … a good book for all those seeking to understand our closest relatives in the animal kingdom: undergraduates in particular will benefit from this synthesis of all that is known at the present time. [Simultaneously], the author writes well so his book is accessible to the general reader.’ Vernon Reynolds, University of Oxford ’Wild Chimpanzees is a superbly original and incisive overview of the behavior, ecology and conservation of a critically important species. Arcadi provides a broad primate context for his synthesis, presents a rich history of the main field-sites and the behavioral differences associated with them, and explores the evolutionary significance of numerous types of cooperation, competition and communication. Arcadi’s clarity of exposition, systematic consideration and crisp thinking make this an invaluable source for students and professionals alike.’ Richard Wrangham, Harvard University, Massachusetts 2018 228 x 152 mm 244pp 4 b/w illus. 14 colour illus. 7 tables 978-1-107-19717-6 Hardback £57.99 / US$79.99 978-1-316-64756-1 Paperback £24.99 / US$34.99 For all formats available, see

An Ape’s View of Human Evolution Peter Andrews Natural History Museum, London
Whilst many books have addressed human evolution and the human fossil record, very few have examined our fossil ape relatives. This volume synthesises genetic, ecological and anatomical data to develop a unique account of what we know about our last common ancestor and how they lived. ‘Peter Andrews draws on more than four decades of research and personal recollections in this engaging and thought-provoking review of how the evolution of apes informs us about human origins. Importantly, Andrews goes beyond the fossil evidence of the teeth and bones to reconstruct the paleobiology and paleoecology of our antecedents, and thus offers a unique perspective on the remarkable evolutionary events that ultimately gave rise to modern humans. This is an extraordinary tale worth telling, and there is no one better than Peter Andrews to tell it.’ Terry Harrison, New York University ‘Ape evolution extends back in time more than 20 million years earlier than that of humans, with a more diverse array of species. Yet, there has not been a single book dedicated to interpreting that rich fossil record in itself or with respect to the emergence of humans. An Apes View of Human Evolution by Peter Andrews now fills that void. Reflecting Andrews’ unique – for a paleoanthropologist – early background in forestry, the book’s perspective centers on paleoenvironments, how they have influenced diversity among apes and the spread of apes throughout the Old World during the Miocene. The book also focuses on the sites and fossils that Andrews has worked on most extensively, which span much of the Miocene and Pliocene. Thus, it is both a guide to the record of ape evolution leading to the emergence of humans as well as a captivating personal narrative of exploration.’ Jay Kelley, Arizona State University

ALSO OF INTEREST Environmental Attitudes through Time R. J. Berry University College London
This volume presents data and concepts from a broad range of disciplines that affect our life and well-being within our environment. It shows the limits but also the possibilities for action and so throws light on our present and future fate as individuals, as citizens, and as decision makers. ‘For those who think that environmentalism is a twenty-first century obsession it will be a surprise to find that the burning of coal was banned in London because it was ‘prejudicial to health’ as long ago as 1273! These and a myriad of other facts litter the pages of this magisterial book which surveys centuries of environmental concern. Professor Berry shows that there is no human activity that is environmentally neutral. Drawing on science, philosophy, ethics and theology he examines the relationship between humanity and nature. From the Earth Charter to ecosystems, from Gaia to God he explores the shifting attitudes to caring for creation. He is one of the elders of the environmental movement with his own distinctive and influential voice. His chapter on Awe is the best bridge over which any one could walk to survey the imaginary chasm between science and religion.’ The Right Reverend James Jones, KBE, formerly Bishop of Liverpool ‘The developments of science and conservation over time are intricately woven together in this scholarly account of human attitudes to nature. This walk through the history of interactions with the environment brings together science, politics and philosophy in a most engaging way, and offers a factual and historical account of what humans are doing to destroy or to research and preserve the natural environment from classical times to the present day. The author, a naturalist, ends by stressing a
post-materialist view that recognises the awe of nature and concludes that to halt destruction an ethical and moral solution is needed. Anyone concerned about the protection of nature will gain a lot from this compendium of attitudes to the environment over time. I am sure that this book with so much information from the past will help to change attitudes to nature today.’ Sir Ghillean Prance, Former Director of the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew 2018 228 x 152 mm 276pp 53 b/w illus. 3 maps 1 table 978-1-107-06232-0 Hardback £59.99 / US$79.99 978-1-107-67948-1 Paperback £24.99 / US$34.99 For all formats available, see

This book is for students, professionals, and anyone wishing to learn the basics of biological control. It covers strategies for controlling invertebrates and vertebrates, weeds, and plant pathogens using a diversity of agents, as well as discussing the environmental safety and sustainability of biological control. ‘This second edition of Natural Enemies has been skillfully updated to cover advances in biological control since 2004 which is sure to reinstate it as the standard introduction to the subject for undergraduates and other interested readers. Written by leading international experts, the text is both authoritative and easy to read, and is richly illustrated with fascinating examples of biological control applications from around the world. The expertise of the authors is readily apparent throughout the book and the breadth of coverage of all aspects of biological control is excellent. I highly recommend this text to anyone seeking to develop a course or workshop on the subject due to its comprehensive coverage, accessibility without need for specialist knowledge, and engaging style. It is reassuring to know that a new generation of biological control practitioners will be inspired by this well informed and enthusiastic introduction to the subject.’ Nicholas J. Mills, University of California, Berkeley ‘The second edition retains all that was positive from the first edition – including wonderful graphs, illustrations and topic boxes – and adds a number of exciting updates. The section on conservation biological control is expanded, which reflects growth in this area over the last two decades. I also appreciated the updates to the last section of the book, which focuses on the evolving science of biological control. Here Hajek and Eilenberg provide a thoughtful and up-to-date discussion of the risks of biological control along with a nice sampling of risk assessment models. Also – the last chapter looks ahead at issues that the discipline will need to come to terms with including climate change, sustainability and the continued unintentional movement of species across the globe.’ George Heimpel, University of Minnesota

Wild pigs and peccaries play important cultural and ecological roles in many parts of the world. Most species are threatened, but some have become pests. This first comprehensive work on wild pigs and peccaries includes case studies, population assessments, disease ecology, and domestication for researchers, wildlife managers and students.
Bringing together numerous studies on ladybirds into one place, this book is composed largely of Professor M. E. N. Majerus’ lifetime work, with updates made by two leading experts in the field. Organised into coherent themes, it provides readers with a complete ecological understanding of the ladybird species in a global context. ‘The detail here is immense … It’s also enlightening. … Majerus was taken from us too early, aged just 55, but this book stands as a tribute to his work – to make ladybirds fascinating and fun.’ Richard Jones, BBC Wildlife ‘A Natural History of Ladybird Beetles is an absolute joy to read. Perfect for beginners and experts alike, it begins with the role ladybirds have in folklore and nursery rhymes, and moves on to exceptionally detailed, yet accessible information on where ladybirds live, what they eat and what eats them, their sex lives, conservation and what the future holds for them. It’s probably the most detailed ladybird book available, with fascinating new information painstakingly researched by the late Professor Majerus, who died before his book was completed. A Natural History of Ladybird Beetles has been lovingly assembled by his former colleagues – some of Britain’s leading ladybird experts – and is a wonderful tribute to Majerus’ life’s work.’ Kate Bradbury, Garden writer

Ant-Plant Interactions
Deep-Sea Fishes
Impacts of Humans on Terrestrial Ecosystems
Biology, Diversity, Ecology and Fisheries
Edited by Paulo S. Oliveira Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Brazil
Imants G. Priede
and Suzanne Koptur
University of Aberdeen
Florida International University
Synthesising the very latest research, this comprehensive account of deep-sea fishes covers evolution, physiology and ecology, as well as the history of their discovery. Priede provides a global account of both pelagic and demersal species and, crucially, considers the effect of the growing deep-sea fishing industry on sustainability.
Ants and flowering plants are dominant in most terrestrial ecosystems, and their interactions are geographically widespread. This is the first resource for undergraduate and graduate students in ecology and conservation biology devoted entirely to human-induced global changes and their consequences for ant-plant interactions. ‘Ant-Plant Interactions is the definitive and greatly needed treatise on a subject of importance to general terrestrial ecology and the study of Earth’s dominant social insects.’ Edward O. Wilson, Harvard University, Massachusetts ‘Ants dominate terrestrial habitats worldwide, and their interactions with plants structure biodiversity within those habitats. This edited volume offers a timely, comprehensive treatment of ways in which ecologically diverse ant-plant interactions are affected by, and are responding to, human-induced changes to the landscape. Worldwide in scope and covering topics that cut across basic ecology, agriculture, and conservation, it authoritatively reviews, presents new data, and highlights critical gaps in our nascent understanding of ants’ critical roles in terrestrial ecosystems.’ Judith L. Bronstein, University of Arizona

Wildlife Politics Bruce Rocheleau Northern Illinois University
This book provides an analysis of the forces that impact wildlife politics in over sixty-five countries. Topics covered include overexploitation, hunting, ecotourism, the struggle to prevent illegal wildlife trafficking, science’s role in wildlife policymaking, the conflicting forces behind legislation and the significance of the Endangered Species Act. ‘Eminently readable and thoroughly referenced, Wildlife Politics fills a great void in the literature. It will make an excellent primary text in classes on conservation politics and an excellent supplementary text in survey courses on conservation, which usually give short shrift to politics and thus leave students unprepared.’ David Johns, Biological Conservation 2017 247 x 174 mm 382pp 978-1-107-18730-6 Hardback £49.99 / US$64.99 For all formats available, see

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT Writing in the Environmental Sciences A Seven-Step Guide
L. Michelle Baker
Written for environmental scientists and conservation professionals, this guide enables scientists to translate their research into effective communications, ranging from policy and regulatory documents to grant proposals. Baker sets out a replicable seven-step writing formula, supported throughout by practical examples, strategies, and diagrams. ‘For scientists wishing to write persuasively and in their own voices, L. Michelle Baker’s Writing in the Environmental Sciences is an essential read. This sevenstep guide is as well-written as it is instructive. It explains the writing process in both a welcome and digestible way. Michelle includes plenty of examples and writing tips to illustrate the major concepts, which when employed, yield clear and concise writing. That is critically important when distilling scientific method and results, and even more so when explaining the underlying assumptions and limitations. Likewise, when applying science in a regulatory or decision-making context, Michelle’s thoughtful approach helps in crafting influential arguments. For those seeking to make science relevant, interesting, and compelling, Writing in the Environmental Sciences is the hammer in the conservation tool box.’ David Rothstein, Environmental Attorney, Wildlife Biologist and Conservation Educator ‘L. Michelle Baker’s Writing in the Environmental Sciences is a clear, thoughtful, and comprehensive guide to a kind of writing that is both necessary and daunting. The author understands that writing takes place in larger contexts of institutional and disciplinary expectations, and she lays out a step-by-step guide to writing effectively within these contexts. This book covers all of the bases. It shows writers how to be clearer, more concise, and more persuasive. And it includes plentiful examples of what good writing looks like.’ Michael Austin, Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs, University of Evansville, Indiana 2017 228 x 152 mm 304pp 978-1-107-19314-7 Hardback £63.99 / US$79.99 978-1-316-64356-3 Paperback £24.99 / US$32.99 For all formats available, see

Successful Careers beyond the Lab Edited by David J. Bennett St Edmund’s College, Cambridge
and Richard C. Jennings University of Cambridge
This book provides an invaluable resource for undergraduate, postgraduate and early-career scientists on the wide range of alternative careers available. It brings together entertaining personal accounts from experienced role models and readable summaries of possible pathways, the skills required and the working lifestyles of careers from business and the media to government, and beyond. ‘This excellent book is directed at those for whom a conventional academic and research career is not necessarily their cup of tea. In it, you can learn how many other opportunities there are for scientists outside the usual academic route. The book is full of first-rate practical advice, emphasising the value of a self-assessment of your skills and interests, and illustrating that there is a major demand for people with training in science in many areas ranging from entrepreneurship and policy to PR and politics. Above all, do something you enjoy and believe is worthwhile, and do not consider yourself a failure because you have not continued in academic research.’ Sir Walter Bodmer, Weatherall Institute of Molecular Medicine ‘The enthusiastic and positive accounts in this book provide ample evidence that there is life beyond the lab, and that it can be a good life: rewarding, fulfilling and richly varied. To take that decision to go where the grass might be greener requires careful thought and the application of your best research skills – to research your own future. This book provides one major source of
information, advice and a great range of personal words of guidance to help inform your next step.’ Gordon Chesterman, University of Cambridge Careers Service
