Dear Friends and Colleagues:
Georg Striedter and I wanted everyone to know that we’ve written a book called “Bird Brains
and Behavior: A Synthesis”. I’ve attached the table of contents and the
first 10 pages of Chapter 1.
If you’re interested in reading more, the book’s release date is August
5th. At that time the printed book will become available from various
booksellers. If you have a US address, you
can order it from PenguinRandomHouse.com using
the discount code MITP30 for 30% off on August 5th, or READMIT20 for
20% off any time after publication.
Elsewhere,
it is available through Amazon and major book sellers, basically anyone
who stocks Penguin Random House books.
If you don't want a hard copy, an electronic version of the book will be available through MITP’s Open
Access initiative, which is made possible by the support of many
libraries around the world (see
https://direct.mit.edu/books/pages/direct-to-open).
Once the book is officially released (5 Aug 2025), you should be able
to download the chapter pdfs through the book’s official web page:
https://mitpress.mit.edu/9780262552738/bird-brains-and-behavior/
We hope you enjoy the book and find it useful.
