Evolutionary Ecology of Birds

- Life Histories, Mating systems, and Extinction

About Evolutionary Ecology of Birds

Birds show bewildering diversity in their life histories, mating systems and risk of extinction. Why, for example, are fairy-wrens so sexually promiscuous while swans show life long monogamy? This fascinating book is a comprehensive re-appraisal of avian diversity, and is the most extensive application of modern comparative methods yet undertaken.
