Synopsis
Measuring Behaviour is a guide to the principles and methods of quantitative studies of behaviour, with an emphasis on techniques of direct observation, recording and analysis. Numerous textbooks describe and analyse human and animal behaviour, but none provides a comprehensive review of the principles and techniques of its measurement. Those undertaking this task for the first time are often bemused by the apparent difficulty of the job facing them - how will they accurately and systematically record all that is happening? The purpose of this book is to provide this basic knowledge in a succinct and easily understood form. This concise review of methodology includes a comprehensive annotated bibliography. Written with ,brevity and clarity, Measuring Behaviour is intended, above all, as a practical guide-book.

Review
'... clear, concise and always eminently sensible.' The Times Higher Education Supplement
'... an excellent little book.' British Psychological Society Bulletin
'... destined to become a classic.' Trends in Ecology and Evolution
'The second edition can be recommended as a good introduction to the measurement and analysis of behaviour.' Ibis
'The authors are specialists in behaviour science. Animal and human behaviour can be measured in various manners (duration, periodicity, social or individual, evolution, development and so on) but how? This book gives the necessary answers and is designed to furnish a clear basis to students.... It is an excellent guide, comprehensive and precise, and without any superfluous discussions.' Michel Cuisin
