Although birds have rather uniform body plan and physiology, they exhibit marked variation in developmental type, parental care, and rate of growth. This makes them ideal for studying and understanding evolutionary adaptation. Presenting an integrative perspective of organism biology, ecology, and evolution, this book is a case study in the evolutionary diversification of life histories.
