Animal Behavior: an Evolutionary Approach by John Alcock
This classic text continues to offer a balanced treatment of the underlying mechanisms and evolutionary bases of behaviour with a focus on the importance of evolutionary theory for the unification of the different behavioural disciplines. The new edition has been thoroughly rewritten with coverage of recent work in the field.

Dr. Alcock received the Dean's Quality Teaching Award the first year it was given at Arizona State University, USA.
