Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Animal Life and Social Growth
In the preparation of this book, I have purposely omitted citations to technical literature which would give in detail the various facts cited or support the point of view taken. Reference to much of the literature of the subject can be found in recent volumes of the journal, Ecology; in Allee and Schmidt's American edition Of R.
Hesse's Animal Geography (c. C. Thomas, 1932) or in Allee's Animal Aggregations, A study in General Sociology (university of Chicago Press, I wish to acknowledge indebtedness to many workers who may recognize their ideas in a new dress and, perhaps, in unexpected company; to Kenji Toda for drawing the figures and to V. E. Shelford and Marjorie Hill Allee for reading the manuscript critically.
