Author: Cecilia HeyesPublisher: MIT PressPaperback:ISBN 10: 0262526964ISBN 13: 978-0262526968This book encompasses the behavior and mentality of nonhuman as well as human animals and a full range of evolutionary approaches. Rather than a collection by and for the like-minded, it is a debate about how evolutionary processes have shaped cognition. Review This important collection of essays represents most major currents of present thought in animal cognition: from the modularity of the mind to cultural evolution, from the search for episodic memory in animals to the properties of causal reasoning in humans, from honeybees to ravens. A crucial reference in this dynamic and rapidly evolving field.―Alex Kacelnik, Professor of Behavioural Ecology, Department of Zoology, Oxford University (Endorsement) About the Author Gerd
