Animal cognition (2012)
Authors
Abstract
Animals exhibit a range of fascinating cognitive abilities. Some species amaze us with their human-like abilities. Others amaze us because their abilities are so different from our own. Each species is unique in its constellation of cognitive capacities because evolution has tailored these capacities for solving the problems animals face in their physical and social worlds.
