Sumario:Penguin Biology is the first broad-based collection of biological and ecological studies of these unique birds to be published since 1975.

Penguin Biology is an invaluable reference for ornithologists, animal behaviorists, animal physiologists, marine zoologists, marine ecologists, evolutionary biologists, and Antarctic researchers. Major topics covered include * Breeding, feeding, and foraging * Behavior and evolution * Energetics and physiology * New fossil material.
