"This book is about the relationships of animals to their resources and about their relationships to one another through those resources. It brings together parts of two flourishing biological disciplines, ecology and ethology. Natural history, the description of the lives of animals, is rich in observations useful to both the ethologist and the ecologist. But the theoretical questions addressed by natural historical studies have usually been those of systematics (the phylogenetic relationships between different groups of organisms), not those of ethology or ecology, much less those linking them. Behavioral ecology is not, strictly speaking, a discrete area of ecological theory, as is population ecology or community ecology. Rather it is a way (and I believe a profitable way) of approaching many topics of ecological importance. For this reason I shall not attempt to outline a theory of behavioral ecology. It seems to me that the promise of this approach is that deeper understanding, and new questions, will arise from a more inclusive attack on the old questions." The chapter headings are: Introduction; Variability in Foraging Patterns; Food Selection; Habitat Selection; Avoiding Predation; Behavioral Thermoregulation and Maintenance; Reproduction; Competition, Especially for Mates; Territoriality; Spacing Patterns: Dominance Hierarchies; Competition between Species; Social Groups; and Future Directions. Thirteen chapters, 383 pages, with tables, figures, References, and Index; plus ix pages Acknowledgements and Contents.
