• catalog abstract "This book is about the ways in which many animals form groups, for instance, schools of fish, flock-of birds, and swarms of insects. Covering both invertebrate and vertebrate species, the authors investigate three-dimensional animal aggregations from a variety of disciplines, from physics to mathematics to biology. Researchers interested in behavioral ecology or modeling biological systems would benefit from reading this book.".
