Book excerpt: What can we learn from watching animals play? Dogs chase each other and wrestle. Cats pounce and bite. These animals may look like they are fighting, but if you pay close attention— as world-renowned biologist Marc Bekoff does—you can see they are playing and learning the rules of their games. In Animals at Play, Bekoff shows us how animals behave when they play, with full-color illustrations showing animals in action and having fun—from squirrels climbing up a tree to polar bears somersaulting in the snow. Bekoff emphasizes how animals communicate, cooperate and learn to play fair and what happens when they break the rules. He uses lively illustrations and simple explanations of what it means when a sea lion swims with kelp in its mouth or when two dogs bow to each other. Bekoff also describes what happens when animals become too aggressive and how they apologize, forgive and learn to trust one another. This entertaining and informative book will delight every child and show readers how animals—and humans—interact when they are having fun.

Download or read book Play and Exploration in Children and Animals written by Thomas G. Power and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 1999-11-01 with total page 574 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Play is a paradox. Why would the young of so many species--the very animals at greatest risk for injury and predation--devote so much time and energy to an activity that by definition has no immediate purpose? This question has long puzzled students of animal behavior, and has been the focus of considerable empirical investigation and debate. In this first comprehensive and state-of-the-art review of what we have learned from decades of research on exploration and play in children and animals, Power examines the paradox from all angles. Covering solitary activity as well as play with peers, siblings, and parents, he considers the nature, development, and functions of play, as well as the gender differences in early play patterns. A major purpose is to explore the relevance of the animal literature for understanding human behavior. The nature and amount of children's play varies significantly across cultures, so the author makes cross-cultural comparisons wherever possible. The scope is broad and the range multidisciplinary. He draws on studies by developmental researchers in psychology and other fields, ethologists, anthropologists, sociologists, sociolinguists, early childhood educators, and pediatricians. And he places research on play in the context of research on such related phenomena as prosocial behavior and aggression. Finally, Power points out directions for further inquiry and implications for those who work with young children and their parents. Researchers and students will find Play and Exploration in Children and Animals an invaluable summary of controversies, methods, and findings; practitioners and educators will find it an invaluable compendium of information relevant to their efforts to enrich play experiences.

Download or read book Animal Play Behavior written by Robert Fagen and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1981 with total page 710 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this innovative analysis - the first comprehensive, single-author treatment of the subject in this century - Robert Fagen breaks new ground by adopting an evolutionary approach to behavioral development. Basing his research on the natural history of play in animals, as well as on recent advances in theoretical biology, he resolves an essential biological paradox: mammals, including humans, and birds, of every age and species, spend time and energy - even risk physical injury - performing the seemingly inconsequential activities referred to colloquially as play. Features of this unique book include a detailed review of the natural history of play in mammalian and avian species (supplemented by an extensive bibliography); sociobiological analysis of the shifting balance between selfishness and cooperation in animal social play; and discussion of the biological mechanisms underlying beneficial and hamrful effects of play behavior. Robert Fagen uses previously unexploited theory to investigate the phenomenon of play and to generate several novel or unusual insights and questions. His clear, literate style, enhanced by notes, appendices, and numerous lively illustrations, serves to communicate, entertain, and educate professionals and academics as well as general readers who are fascinated with the natural history, psychology, and behavior of animals.
