Chapters fall under such diverse rubrics as  ecology, evolution, behavior, phylogeny, behavioral ecology, anatomy  and physiology, and conservation biology. All authors are leading  authorities on their subjects, and each chapter is refereed by experts  in the topics covered. Although all chapters focus primarily on birds,  some topics, such as the social cognition of birds as compared to  primates (Volume 13), have significant application to disciplines  outside of ornithology. \u003cem\u003eCurrent Ornithology\u003c\/em\u003e aims to provide an  accessible, up-to-date, accurate source of data and to contribute to  conceptual generalization and unification across the biological  sciences.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1992-02-29\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardcover\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780306439902\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4757-9921-7\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 235cm x155cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 248\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer US","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46312102232204,"sku":"9780306439902","price":152.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780306439902.jpg?v=1771518519","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780306439902","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
