Description: "This book will be useful as a general reference to the phenomena associated with animal movements."--The Condor". . . an excellent introduction to current ideas and concepts concerning the promotion and maintenance of a wide range of movement patterns."--IBIS"This is an interesting and thought provoking book in which the author successfully accomplishes his primary aim of generating a comparative survey of migratory behavior. . . Perhaps most important, the author also successfully integrates the dizzying array of definitions and key terms, both conceptual and operational, that comprise this field. Migration by Hugh Dingle is first-rate and should prove to be a valuable reference to students and researchers alike, regardless of taxonomic bias."--American Zoologist"The book is well written and illustrated, provides a coherent approach to movement patterns, addresses the major topic areas, and suggests areas for future research." --Quarterly Review of Biology
