Synopsis
Successful reproduction is not always a cooperative affair, but rather a competition between males, with females having the final "say." Throughout there is conflict regarding when, with whom and how often mating should occur. This volume provides the first comprehensive summary of the various forms of sexual communication and behavior and the consequences of the interaction between the sexes.
