About this title

Synopsis

Explores the genetic and behavioral basis of kin recognition in social animals. This topic has wide-ranging and fundamental implications for evolutionary and behavioral biologists, since kin selection tends to favor the general survival of a group rather than its individual members, thus contradicting such basic concepts as natural selection based on survival of the fittest individuals. Provides an overview of the field in the form of an edited collection of review papers written by experts on the subject which reflects the indisciplinary nature of the field. .

Store Description

3,000 sq ft 35,000 + books mostly out of print, rare, many foreign language. especially strong in NATIVE AMERICA, WESTERN AMERICANA,SCIENCE, TECHNICAL,ART. Been here 30+. No international orders please too many scammers (Australians) and constantly changing rules and people in Germany complaining and adding weird new hoops (Extended Producer Responsibility) to jump through. Every country wants it's own tax form and tax ID and and VAT Number and IOSS ID or countless other acronyms that change weeksly and it's not worth it for us sorry.
