Alternative reproductive tactics an integrative approach

By integrating both mechanistic (psychological) and evolutionary (behavioural ecology) perspectives and by covering a great diversity of species, Alternative Reproductive Tactics addresses an exciting topic of long-standing interest, bringing together a multitude of otherwise scattered information in an accessible form that is ideal for graduate students and researchers.
