"This is a wide-ranging collection of articles on the evolutionary mechanism of sexual selection. ... This work will be a valuable addition to biology, history, and philosophy library collections, accessible to senior undergraduates and above. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through professionals/practitioners." (R. Paul Thompson, Choice, Vol. 53 (8), April, 2016) "Current Perspectives covers a wide range of topics surrounding sexual selection. ... the book stands as an excellent crash course for anyone hoping to catch up to speed on, in particular, the history of sexual selection. The book's engagement with the historical literature is impressively thorough and probably the book's most notable overall strength." (Sara Weaver, Metascience, Vol. 25, 2016) "The chapters of the current book are divided into three sections, essentially organized as past (history of sexual selection theory), present (current challenges in sexual selection theory), and future (animal aesthetics). This organization provides the reader with an excellent context for the concepts introduced in each of the chapters. ... This book, appropriate for serious scholars of evolutionary theory as well as graduate-level coursework on sexual selection theory, advances the discussion and strengthens the development of the theory." (Robert D. Mather, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 60 (36), September, 2015)
