Anne E. Russon – The Evolution of Thought. Evolutionary Origins of Great Ape Intelligence

Written for graduate students and researchers, this book reviews the reasons for, and the nature of, great ape intelligence. Great apes are the most intelligent primates next to humans. Exactly how this intelligence evolved is a complex question that, when resolved, will help us to understand why humans have reached an even higher level. No other book combines the expertise of paleontologists, biologists, anthropologists, and psychologists to attain an appreciation of intelligence in great apes.   źródło opisu: Wydawnictwo Cambridge University Press, 2007 źródło okładki: Wydawnictwo Cambridge University Press, 2007
