Reviews / Votes
` As has been true with past volumes in this series, and as is particularly true this year for workers in the fields of conservation/population biology, energy studies, and studies of the evolution and ecology of behavior and social organization, Current Ornithology is not just `for the birds' anymore. 'Bioscience, March 1991
` The volume is excellent, and the extensive literature reviews provided at the end of each chapter make this valuable for anyone initiating a research study on one of the topics discussed. '
The Wilson Bulletin, June 1991
` Volume 7 is a valuable reference. '
Journal of the British Ornithologists' Union, 1990
