Play, Playfulness, Creativity and Innovation Patrick Bateson

University of Cambridge

and Paul Martin

Wolfson College, 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. ‘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) 2013 228 x 152 mm 166pp 1 b/w illus. 978-1-107-01513-5 Hardback £55.00 / US$85.00 978-1-107-68934-3 Paperback £21.99 / US$34.99 For all formats available, see

Evolutionary Biology From Clone to Bone The Synergy of Morphological and Molecular Tools in Palaeobiology Edited by Robert J. Asher University of Cambridge

and Johannes Müller

Museum für Naturkunde; Humboldt Universität zu Berlin

Featuring contributions from leading researchers, this volume provides perspectives on how molecular biology can inform paleontology, directly and indirectly, to better understand life’s past. Paleobiological questions such as genome size, digit homologies, genetic control cascades behind phenotype, estimates of vertebrate divergence dates, and rates of morphological evolution are addressed. ‘Fundamental questions in biology, such as the origin of form and the tree of life, were major concerns for the leading biologists of the nineteenth century, but those researchers lacked the research tools to test their ideas. This book highlights the remarkable synergies between molecular biologists, developmental biologists, and palaeobiologists in providing new understanding. Asher and Müller have assembled an excellent set of chapters on these themes, and these provide incisive introductions to an important interdisciplinary field.’ Michael J.

Evolutionary Biology

Human Evolution

Understanding Evolution

Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies Graeme Finlay

Kostas Kampourakis Université de Genève

University of Auckland

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.

In the past decade the human genome project and genetic sequencing of many other species have provided unambiguous genetic markers that establish our evolutionary relationships with other mammals. Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies recognises and explains these identifiable, rare and complex markers. ‘In this book Dr Finlay takes several examples to illustrate our evolutionary tree at the molecular and genomic level. Step by step he provides a wealth of cumulative evidence that demonstrates how our genomes are related to other primates and to our more distant biological relatives. The evidence is compelling and shows the elegant ways in which we are connected to the rest of biology. Nonetheless we are more than just intelligent apes, and Finlay is careful to emphasise that our genomes are only part of the story of what it means to be human and that we have also been shaped by historical, cultural and religious factors that may not affect our physiology and anatomy but define us a human beings.’ Keith R. Fox, University of Southampton 2013 247 x 174 mm 368pp 101 b/w illus. 11 tables 978-1-107-04012-0 Hardback £45.00 / US$75.00 For all formats available, see

www.cambridge.org/9781107040120

‘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 thoughtprovoking 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 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, University of Padova 2014 247 x 174 mm 270pp 59 b/w illus. 11 tables 978-1-107-03491-4 Hardback £55.00 / US$90.00 978-1-107-61020-0 Paperback £22.99 / US$34.99 For all formats available, see

The Politics of Species Reshaping our Relationships with Other Animals Edited by Raymond Corbey

Universiteit van Tilburg, and Universiteit Leiden The Netherlands

and Annette Lanjouw Arcus Foundation, New York

Bringing together experts from a range of disciplines, this volume identifies the key barriers to a definition of moral respect that includes nonhuman animals. The chapters link scientific data with normative and philosophical reflections, offering unique insight into controversial issues around the ethical, political and legal status of other species. ‘Whereas everybody agrees that making the world a better place is a worthwhile endeavour, an open question remains: better for whom? The Politics of Species brilliantly highlights the scientific, moral and political importance of this topical question. Having done penance for their wrongs of racism, xenophobia, class hatred and sexism, Western societies need to engage in ethical reflexion about the merciless domination and exploitation they inflict on animals. In a series of fascinating case studies, leading experts from a broad range of disciplines supply such a reflexion with a rich factual and conceptual basis, linking scientific data with normative and philosophical ideas in a plea for a renewed moral vision of relationships between humans and nonhuman beings.’ Wiktor Stoczkowski, L’École des Hautes Études en Sciences Sociales 2013 247 x 174 mm 310pp 34 b/w illus. 1 table 978-1-107-03260-6 Hardback £65.00 / US$99.00 For all formats available, see

Providing a single source of information for students, scientists, practitioners and policy-makers, this is a critical review of the impacts of climate change on global bird populations. The authors review the potential for future impacts and consider how conservationists should respond to these threats. ‘Over twenty years ago, when I first became interested in the impacts of climate change on wild plants and animals, the literature was limited and the field wide open. Now it is very hard to keep up. This marvellous book is exactly what I need to feel on top of the subject once more, and needs to be read not just by ornithologists, but by all ecologists struggling to understand and predict the impacts of climate change on the living world. The authors are two world-leaders on the impacts of climate change on birds. The text summarises the effects of climate change that have already happened, seeks to predict what we can expect in the future, and considers what conservation biologists can do to mitigate its effects. The coverage is comprehensive, and skilfully distils a large and complicated literature into a compelling … narrative.’ John Lawton, Chairman, Yorkshire Wildlife Trust and Vice-President, RSPB Ecology, Biodiversity and Conservation
