Product Description

Review

' ... deserves to be in any research library with an interest in mammals or evolutionary studies. It is right up-to-date, authoritative, and fully referenced.' D. W. Yalden, The Linnean 'African Mole-Rats is a must for research libraries and individuals intrigued with the ecology, evolution, and elaboration of social life.' Paul W. Sherman, New Biological Books 'This is an excellent and fascinating book.' Biologist


Review

"Although the authors present solid scientific information complete with copious high quality tables and graphs, their writing style is such as to engage nonprofessionals as well as those doing research on mole-rats. Their book should be in libraries of colleges and universities, particularly those emphasizing ecology, vertebrate biology, evolution, and animal behavior." Choice

"African Mole-Rats is a must for research libraries and individuals intrigued with the ecology, evolution, and elaboration of social life." Quarterly Review of Biology

"This book is valuable to all of us interested in evolution of social behavior for its comprehensive references on the African mole-rats and it has the advantage over an edited volume of being clearly organized and having consistent style. African mole-rats, ecology and eusociality is an excellent review of the Bathyergidae and a well-crafted arguement in support of the AFDH." Ethology

5.0 out of 5 stars A great comparative analysis of these curious animals, Jun 13 2000
By Ted Stankowich (Ithaca, New York) - See all my reviews
As a fellow mole-rat researcher, I found this book to be an extremely valuable resource for information on all of the Bathyergidae rodents. From phylogenetic analysis to an interspecies comparison of sociality, Bennett and Faulkes cover all of the relevant topics and provide an extensive summary of all of the relevant literature. Mole-rats are an excellent group of animals for studying mammalian social behavior and cooperative breeding. This book is a must buy for anyone interested in mole-rats or even animal social behavior for that matter.
