Description

Explore the origins of human language through this comprehensive study of primate behavior. The Gestural Communication of Apes and Monkeys offers a deep look into twenty years of naturalistic and experimental research. This collection examines how primates use gestures and compares these findings to the vocal communication patterns found in nonhuman primates. By making systematic comparisons to the gestures used by prelinguistic and just-linguistic human children, this work provides a unique perspective on evolutionary biology and cognitive psychology. It serves as an enlightening look into the potential starting points for the evolution of human communication. Whether you are a researcher or a student of cognitive psychology, this book provides essential insights into the complex ways primates interact and communicate.
