GROUP PROCESSESTransactions of the First Conference

This stimulating and exciting volume is the nearly verbatimreport of a multidiscipline conference of outstanding repre-sentatives from the fields of zoology, anthropology, ethology,psychology, physiology, and psychiatry, all of whom con-tribute liberally from their wealth of experience.

These Transactions enable the reader to watch the develop-ment, by social and 6iological scientists, of a mutual andcommon understanding of the problems involved in theinterpretation and measurement of patterns of behavior,6oth animal and human. Much new and previously unavail-able data on ethology are presented.
