In this book, an international cast of leading animal biologists reflect on the enduring significance of Tinbergen's groundbreaking proposals for modern behavioural biology. It includes a reprint of Tinbergen's original article on the famous 'four whys' and a contemporary introduction, after which each of the four questions are discussed in the light of contemporary evidence. There is also a discussion of the wider significance of recent trends in evolutionary psychology and neuroecology to integrate the 'four whys'. With a foreword by one of Tinbergen's most prominent pupils, Aubrey Manning, this wide-ranging book demonstrates that Tinbergen's views on animal behaviour are crucial for modern behavioural biology. It will appeal to graduate students and researchers in animal behaviour, behavioural ecology and evolutionary biology. 606 $aAnimal behavior$xResearch 615 0$aAnimal behavior$xResearch. 676 $a591.5 686 $a42.66$2bcl 702 $aBolhuis$b Johan J. 702 $aVerhulst$b Simon 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782690003321 996 $aTinbergen's legacy$93790359 997 $aUNINA
