This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 7th International Workshop on Database Programming Languages, DBPL’99, held in Kinloch Rannoch, UK in September 1999. The 17 revised full papers presented together with an invited paper were carefully reviewed and revised for inclusion in the book. The book presents topical sections on querying and query optmization; languages for document models; persistence, components and workflows; typing and querying semistructured data; active and spatial databases; and unifying semistructured and traditional data models.

Ever since the Custer battle on June 25, 1876, the question has been asked: What happened--what REALLY happened--at the Battle of the Little Bighorn? We know some of the answers because half of George Armstong Custer’s Seventh Cavalry--the men with Major Marcus Reno and Captain Frederick Benteen--survived the fight, but what of the half that did not, the troopers, civilians, scouts, and journalists who were with Custer? Now, because a grass fire in August 1983 cleared the terrain of brush and grass and made thorough archaeological examination possible, we have many answers to

"Part review, part testament to extraordinary dedication, and part call to get involved, Cetacean Societies highlights the achievements of behavioral ecologists inspired by the challenges of cetaceans and committed to the exploration of a new world."—from the preface by Richard WranghamLong-lived, slow to reproduce, and often hidden beneath the water’s surface, whales and dolphins (cetaceans) have remained elusive subjects for scientific study even though they have fascinated humans for centuries.

For over 25 years, primatologists have speculated that intelligence, at least in monkeys and apes, evolved as an adaptation to the complicated social milieu of hard-won friendships and bitterly contested rivalries. Yet the Balkanization of animal research has prevented us from studying the same problem in other large-brained, long-lived animals, such as hyenas and elephants, bats and sperm whales. Social complexity turns out to be widespread indeed. For example, in many animal societies one individual’s innovation, such as tool use or a hunting technique, may spread within the
