"Do the movements of animals, including humans, follow patterns that can be described quantitatively by simple laws of motion ? If so, then why ? These questions have attracted the attention of scientists in many disciplines, and stimulated debates ranging from ecological matters to queries such as 'how can there be free will if one follows a law of motion?' This is the first book on this rapidly evolving subject, introducing random searches and foraging in a way that can be understood by readers without a previous background on the subject. It reviews theory as well as experiment, addresses open problems and perspectives, and discusses applications ranging from the colonization of Madagascar by Austronesians to the diffusion of genetically modified crops. The book will interest physicists working in the field of anomalous diffusion and movement ecology as well as ecologists already familiar with the concepts and methods of statistical physics"--

Exploration, as a behaviour system, is an important aspect of the species specific development of the animals most used in laboratory experiments (e.g. mice, rats, cats, dogs, monkeys and apes.) There was therefore an opportunity to investigate the effects during early development on adaptation, brain development and learning ability. Changes in exploratory behaviour can, for example, indicate sub-optimal housing conditions, such as unstructured macrolon cages

How do rituals work? Although this is one of the first questions that people everywhere ask about rituals, little has been written explicitly on the topic. In The Problem of Ritual Efficacy, nine scholars address this issue, ranging across the fields of history, anthropology, medicine, and biblical studies. For ""modern"" people, the very notion of ritual efficacy is suspicious because rituals are widely thought of as merely symbolic or expressive, so that - by definition - they cannot be efficacious. Nevertheless people in many cultures assume that rituals do indeed ""work,"" and when we take
