Synopsis:
Betty McGuire is from the Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Cornell University. Her research focuses on parental behavior, reproduction, and ecology of small mammals, and she occasionally dabbles in work with larger domestic animals such as dogs and horses.
Elizabeth Jakob, from the Department of Psychology at the University of Massachusetts, studies the behavior of spiders, asking questions about their learning, perception, and interactions with conspecifics and with other species. She has carried out field projects in California, Mexico, Massachusetts, and Maine.
Based on contemporary ecological principles, this text introduces the student to scientific reasoning and methodology and presents the experiments that have led to our present understanding of animal behaviour. It requires no previous knowledge of the more technical areas.
