predictive evolutionary theory,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Biology of the Naked Mole-Rat (Monographs in Behavior and Ecology) (Hardcover)
This is a very important book in that it describes one of the most interesting mammals ever discovered: the first eusocial mammal. It is also a testament to the remarkable ability of adaptationist thinking (reverse engineering) to develop ideas that can then be looked for in nature. The existence of the naked mole rat's unique social structure was predicted based on ideas about the general selective environment that was thought to have led to eusociality in other animals.

This review is from: The Biology of the Naked Mole-Rat (Monographs in Behavior and Ecology) (Paperback)
The book is exceptionally complete in every chapter. It is a valuable tool for anyone who needs to study this unusual animal. Highly recommended reading before one acquires the animals.
