Description: Danny Yee reviews Tim Birkhead's evolutionary history of sperm competition and sexual conflict.
Promiscuity (Tim Birkhead) - book review An Evolutionary History of Sperm Competition and Sexual Conflict © 2000 http://dannyreviews.com/ is a tour of animal sexuality, exploring the effects of sperm competition and sex-based selective pressures on reproductive biology and behaviour. Birkhead begins with the history of sperm competition studies, from Darwin's work on sexual selection to Robert Trivers' work on parental investment and Geoff Parker's role as "the father of sperm competition". He also dismantles the wild but much-publicised "killer sperm" hypothesis of Baker and Bellis.
