A textbook for courses in industrial and organizational psychology.

Considering the tumultuous circumstances of their first meeting. It was hardly surprising that Jake Lang should dislike and despise Natalie Buchan; although she hadn’t intended it that way, he could hardly be blamed for thinking she had seen him as nothing but a cheap substitute for her dead husband Angus. But their work threw them together and it was difficult for Natalie to avoid him – with the inevitable result that she found herself genuinely falling in love with him, and her love for Angus settling gently into the past. Yet what future was there for her and Jake? Could she ever make him change his mind about her?

First paragraph of Preface: This work is designed to serve as a systematic textbook of animal behavior for courses in psychology and biology. Part I covers the behavior of animals below the mammals, a comparative treatment in which we have endeavored not only to characterize each important animal type but also to work out certain fundamental principles of animal adjustment. In Parts II and III these principles are developed further as the major problems of animal psychology are atacked in connection with the behavior of mammals.
