Ethel Tobach, PhD, Curator Emerita at the American Museum of Natural History, New York City, is the series editor of Advances in Comparative Psychology, publication of the International Society for Comparative Psychology and the University of Calabria. This series stresses the responsibility of comparative psychology to the people and natural resources of the countries in which their biennial international conferences take place. The first volume dealt with this responsibility as it applied to Costa Rica.

The third volume will be concerned with similar issues in Barbados.
