Synopsis. 330 $aThis brief discusses factors associated with group formation, group maintenance, group population structure, and other events and processes (e.g., physiology, behavior) related to mammalian social evolution. Within- and between-lineages, features of prehistoric and extant social mammals, patterns and linkages are discussed as components of a possible social ?tool-kit?.  "Top-down? (predators to nutrients), as well as ?bottom-up? (nutrients to predators) effects are assessed.  The present synthesis also emphasizes outcomes of Hebbian (synaptic) decisions on Malthusian parameters (growth rates of populations) and their consequences for (shifting) mean fitnesses of populations.  Ecology and evolution (EcoEvo) are connected via the organism?s ?norms of reaction? (genotype x environment interactions; life-history tradeoffs of reproduction, survival, and growth) exposed to selection, with the success of genotypes influenced by intensities of selection as well as neutral (e.g. mutation rates) and stochastic effects.  At every turn, life history trajectories are assumed to arise from ?decisions? made by types responding to competition for limiting resources constrained by Hamilton?s rule (inclusive fitness operations). 410 0$aSpringerBriefs in Ecology,$x2192-4759 606 $aAnimal ecology 606 $aEcology 606 $aEvolution (Biology) 606 $aApplied ecology 606 $aAnimal Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19015 606 $aTheoretical Ecology/Statistics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19147 606 $aEvolutionary Biology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L21001 606 $aApplied Ecology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/L19023 615 0$aAnimal ecology. 615 0$aEcology. 615 0$aEvolution (Biology) 615 0$aApplied ecology. 615 14$aAnimal Ecology. 615 24$aTheoretical Ecology/Statistics. 615 24$aEvolutionary Biology. 615 24$aApplied Ecology. 676 $a599.138 700 $aJones$b Clara B$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$01058522 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910298312803321 996 $aThe Evolution of Mammalian Sociality in an Ecological Perspective$92500522 997 $aUNINA
