Domestic Animal Behavior for Veterinarians and Animal ScientistsIowa State University Press, 1982 - 356 Seiten "This popular quick reference is back with the latest updated information available. True to earlier editions, Houpt maintains organization by common types of behavior and addresses advances in communication, perception, cognition, and clinical behavior. Key to the fourth edition are advancements in the use of psychotropic drugs and the discovery that animals in general, and dogs in particular, are capable of much higher forms of learning than previously thought. Also new to this edition are discussions of progress and research in understanding equine and production animal behavior, and the relationship between behavior and animal welfare."--BOOK JACKET. |
