Description

Tinbergen was one of the founding fathers of ethology and received the Nobel Prize for Biology and Medicine in 1973. This book looks at Tinbergen's influence on the science of animal behaviour, via his books, films and lectures. Discussed are the historical roots of Tinbergen's fascination for the natural world and the way in which his ideas influenced biologists to ask the right productive questions.
