5.0 out of 5 stars
excellent overview of signaling theory,
By J.D. (Massachusetts, USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Animal Signals (Oxford Series in Ecology and Evolution) (Paperback)
This small volume presents a clear, concise and consistent overview of the field of biological signaling theory. It clarifies the sometimes inconsistent vocabulary of the field.
Maynard-Smith and Harper present topics such as strategic vs. efficacious costs, indices, signals of need, etc. with great clarity and well-researched examples. They are careful about stating what is known, what is surmised, and, when needed, presenting multiple possible interpretations of observed phenomena. The authors pack a lot of information into a small space, and they do an excellent job at highlighting the significant research papers of this growing field. If you are looking for an introduction to signaling theory or a solid and reliable reference to return to over and over, this is it.
