摘要:"Our aim when organizing the conference was to bring together ideas some of which "normally" are not considered to be of immediate and burning inters to human ethology. The authors, zoologist, psychologist, a geneticist, a mathematician and a physiologist have found a transdisciplinary language to write on human social behavior without losing the specific world views of their branches. All papers contain many new aspects, and even some brand-new insights and (yet unpublished) data."--Page v.
