This symposium volume highlights current research in the general field of animal behaviour. The contributors have focused on a series of studies confronting wide-ranging issues: sexual selection and mate choice; differential parental investment; apparent altruism and cooperative behaviour; and the relevance of phylogenetic constraints and historical information. The volume will appeal to evolutionary biologists, behavioural ecologists, palaeontologists, and systematic zoologists, as well as graduate students in these areas.
