When two true masters of their fields join some of the most outstanding researchers to sum up their knowledgee.g. on navigation and communication of insects, or knowledge and planning in primateswe can expect a very competent overview, and this volume does just that! The authors, editors, and the publisher can be congratulated for presenting this. Please, read this book: there remains much to be discovered, and it can be found here.
Endorsement
This excellently edited, important book addresses one of the most vexing questions in the study of animal behavior: Do animals think? The editors bring together an outstanding group of contributors addressing navigation, decision making, communication and knowledge in insects and vertebrates. This book is about concrete empirical results rather than vague concepts and is exquisitely suitable for graduate courses.
