Exploring a new way to conceptualize animal vocal communication, this book moves beyond an earlier emphasis on senders' management of receiver behaviour, to emphasise how receivers' responses influence signalling. It offers important insights for researchers and students of animal behaviour, sensory biology, neuroscience and evolutionary biology.
