To perform well over the long term, to make everyone’s valiant efforts work and “stick,” you need another ingredient, something basic and seemingly ordinary: behavior. New results require new behavior. It’s that simple—and that difficult. The Behavior Breakthrough reveals the quiet revolution that is underway in pioneering and successful organizations.

This collection was shortlisted for the Weekly Mail-Heinemann literary award. Many of the stories appeared in leading literary journals and anthologies and two were broadcast on the BBC World Service. This is the first time they have been brought together in a single volume.

Predator–Prey Interactions: Co-evolution between Bats and Their Prey
This book provides a comprehensive review of the evolution of traits associated with predation and predator defense for bats and all of their prey, both invertebrates (e.g. insects) and vertebrates (e.g. frogs), in the context of co-evolution. It reviews current knowledge of how echolocation and passive hearing are used by bats to hunt prey in complete darkness. Also it highlights how prey have evolved counter measures to bat echolocation to avoid detection and capture. This includes the whole range of prey responses from being active at times when bats are inactive to the use of acoustic signals of their own to interfere with the echolocation system of bats.
