This scholarly volume offers a thorough survey of cooperative breeding in birdsthe phenomenon where individuals assist others in raising offspring rather than breeding themselves. Drawing from both Brown's own theoretical and empirical research and broader literature, it traces the emergence and development of this field from the 1960s onward. The book balances comprehensive reviews of concepts, case studies, diagrams, and illustrations, offering an essential resource for behavioral ecologists, ornithologists, evolutionary biologists, and students exploring sociality and reproductive strategies in avian species.
