'... an excellent little book.' British Psychological Society Bulletin

'... destined to become a classic.' Trends in Ecology and Evolution

'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
