TLDR
A genetical mathematical model is described which allows for interactions between relatives on one another's fitness and a quantity is found which incorporates the maximizing property of Darwinian fitness, named “inclusive fitness”.About:

The effects of varying environmental demands on maternal and infant behavior
TL;DR: In monkeys, as in humans, when mother-infant dyads are psychologically unavailable to their infants, attachments are less secure, normal development is disrupted, and psychopathological patterns are more likely to emerge.

TL;DR: This paper investigated the contribution of helpers in meerkats, Suricata suricatta, and found that helpers varied widely in the number of food items they gave to pups and individual differences were related to variation in foraging success as well as to sex and age.

The new mutation theory of phenotypic evolution
TL;DR: It appears that the driving force of phenotypic evolution is mutation, and natural selection is of secondary importance.

Chapter 28 Game theory and evolutionary biology
TL;DR: This book focuses on the analysis of conflict and cooperation in animals and plants and the dynamics of evolutionary processes in disequilibrium, which is an active area of research in evolutionary game theory.

TL;DR: The results suggest that viscosity of the microbial growth environment is a crucial factor determining the dynamics of wild-type bacteria and siderophore-deficient mutants in natural habitats, such as the viscous mucus in cystic fibrosis lung.

Animal dispersion in relation to social behaviour
TL;DR: Wynne-Edwards has written this interesting and important book as a sequel to his earlier (1962) Animal Dispersion in Relation to Social Behaviour, and reviewing it has proven to be a valuable task for one who normally is only at the periphery of the group selection controversy.
