Abstract Book Description

“Part review, part testament to extraordinary dedication, and part call to get involved, Cetacean Societies highlights the achievements of behavioral ecologists inspired by the challenges of cetaceans and committed to the exploration of a new world.”-from the preface by Richard Wrangham

Long-lived, slow to reproduce, and often hidden beneath the water's surface, whales and dolphins (cetaceans) have remained elusive subjects for scientific study even though they have fascinated humans for centuries. Until recently, much of what we knew about cetaceans came from commercial sources such as whalers and trainers for dolphin acts. Innovative research methods and persistent efforts, however, have begun to penetrate the depths to reveal tantalizing glimpses of the lives of these mammals in their natural habitats.

Cetacean Societies presents the first comprehensive synthesis and review of these new studies. Groups of chapters focus on the history of cetacean behavioral research and methodology; state-of-the-art reviews of information on four of the most-studied species: bottlenose dolphins, killer whales, sperm whales, and humpback whales; and summaries of major topics, including group living, male and female reproductive strategies, communication, and conservation drawn from comparative research on a wide range of species.

Written by some of the world's leading cetacean scientists, this landmark volume will benefit not just students of cetology but also researchers in other areas of behavioral and conservation ecology as well as anyone with a serious interest in the world of whales and dolphins.

Contributors are Robin Baird, Phillip Clapham, Jenny Christal, Richard Connor, Janet Mann, Andrew Read, Randall Reeves, Amy Samuels, Peter Tyack, Linda Weilgart, Hal Whitehead, Randall S. Wells, and Richard Wrangham.

Title Side Bias: A Neuropsychological Perspective Type (up) Book Whole
Year 2000 Publication Abbreviated Journal
Volume Issue Pages
Keywords
Abstract The beginnings of the idea about a book on “side bias” began in the year

1994 during the senior editor“s research association with late Professor M.P.

Bryden and colleagues at the University of Waterloo, Canada. Over many

discussions with Professor Bryden, it was clear that the concept of ”side bias"

encompasses all aspects of motor behaviour within the context of human

(and non-human animal) laterality. The tendency to favour one side or limb

over the other is important not only from the perspective of understanding

the functional asymmetries of the cerebral hemispheres, but also to an

understanding of a myriad of aspects of human behaviour, as the

contributions to this volume will attest.

By side bias, most people would think of bias in terms of hand

preference or performance. The phenomenon of side bias, however, is more

general and influences motor behaviour of all kinds, ranging from simple

hand movement to complex behaviours like facial expression and attention.

Therefore, the concept has been operationalized in terms of bias reflected in

the motor expression of paired (such as hands, feet, eyes, or ears) or

nonpaired organs (such as the face) as a function of preference, performance

or attentional/intentional factors. ....
