Description

Explore the complex relationship between animal biology and cognition in Animal Bodies, Human Minds. Published by Springer, this book offers a broad view of the field of primatology and animal communication. While many texts focus on single species or specific research projects, this work provides an encompassing look at the efforts made over the last 40 years to teach animals to use human-designed languages. The text surveys what was known or believed about animal language skills in apes, dolphins, and parrots. It builds upon the work of influential figures such as Jane Goodall, Sue Savage-Rumbaugh, Penny Patterson, Birute Galdikas, and Roger and Deborah Fouts. Beyond scientific observation, the book addresses the responsibility humans have toward our closest animal kin, making it a significant resource for those studying social sciences and cultural studies.
