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:

Theory of Feeding Strategies
TL;DR: Throughout, emphasis will be placed on strategic aspects of feeding rather than on what Holling (75) has called "tactics," and possible answers to the first problem may be given to the second problem.
Journal ArticleDOI
The evolution of social behavior
TL;DR: For several years the study of social behavior has been undergoing a revolution with far-reaching consequences for the social and biological sciences, partly due to growing acceptance of the evidence that the potency of natural selection is overwhelmingly concentrated at levels no higher than that of the individual.
Journal ArticleDOI
Estimating relatedness using genetic markers.
TL;DR: A new method is described for estimating genetic relatedness from genetic markers such as protein polymorphisms based on Grafen's (1985) relatedness coefficient, which eliminates a downward bias for small sample sizes and improves estimation of relatedness for subsets of population samples.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Optimal Balance between Size and Number of Offspring
TL;DR: The relationship between the energy expended per offspring, fitness of offspring, and parental fitness is presented in a two-dimensional graphical model and the validity of the model in determining an optimal parental strategy is demonstrated analytically.

Evolutionary games on graphs
György Szabó,Gábor Fáth +1 more
TL;DR: The major theme of the review is in what sense and how the graph structure of interactions can modify and enrich the picture of long term behavioral patterns emerging in evolutionary games.

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.
