University of Calgary

and Joan T. Richtsmeier Pennsylvania State University

Anthropologists study the changing shapes of the skeleton during growth and across evolutionary time. This volume brings together examples of how novel methods and approaches can be used to expand our understanding of skeletal variation by combining knowledge from the fields of developmental biology, genetics, histology, morphometrics and imaging.

Vanderbilt University, Tennessee

Bringing together the principle taxonomic groups, from ants to primates, this volume provides a unique perspective on the evolution of cooperative group living. The chapters synthesize features of animal social life to foster the development of a framework for a common, trait-based approach towards social synthesis. 2017 247 x 174 mm 484pp 34 b/w illus. 13 tables 978-1-107-04339-8 Hardback £79.99 / US$115.00 978-1-107-64792-3 Paperback £44.99 / US$64.99 Publication February 2017 For all formats available, see

Its Evolution, Behavior and Interactions with People Second edition Edited by James Serpell

The ultimate book for anyone interested in domestic dogs, this second edition of a classic text includes seven new chapters covering topics such as behavioral modification and training, dog population management, molecular evidence for dog domestication, canine behavioral genetics, cognition, and the impact of free-roaming dogs on wildlife conservation. ‘The first edition of this book, published more than twenty years ago, broke new ground. It was the prelude to an explosion of research in the field of domestic dog behaviour, which has seen the subject move from largely the fringes of academia to a central position that provides a unique opportunity to explore some fundamental biological questions. This completely revised edition, continues in the tradition of the original text by selecting world leading experts to provide current insights into a range of important topics while also making the reader excited for the research which must follow to address the unanswered questions. I therefore have no doubt, that this edition, like the last, will inspire a whole new generation of canine scientists from across the academic disciplines.’ Daniel Mills, University of Lincoln 2016 246 x 189 mm 424pp 84 b/w illus. 8 colour illus. 978-1-107-02414-4 Hardback £69.99 / US$99.99 978-1-107-69934-2 Paperback £34.99 / US$49.99 For all formats available, see

Exploring a new way to conceptualize animal vocal communication, this book moves beyond an earlier emphasis on senders’ management of receiver behaviour, to emphasise how receivers’ responses influence signalling. It offers important insights for researchers and students of animal behaviour, sensory
