Can animals think? How do pigeons find their way home? Do dogs feel guilt? Exploring animal behavior and intelligence, this second edition of the popular book Animal Cognition investigates these questions and more. With a wealth of fascinating case studies, it covers all the key topics, from communication to navigation, with reference to the very latest research. Featuring over a hundred illustrations, the second edition also includes new 'Focus on the data' boxes to explore the scientific foundation of theories and debates. This student-focused text is the ideal introduction to animal cognition, perfect both for those new to the subject and for anybody looking to extend their knowledge, and for everyone else who is interested in exploring the unbelievable capacity of animal intelligence. "This book is vivid and engaging, and tackles the important questions in animal cognition in a highly readable style, enlivening the discussion with historical quotations, illustrations and personal anecdotes." - Lucia Jacobs, Professor of Psychology, University of California, Berkeley, USA "Animal Cognition provides an up-to-date account of the mental life of animals by surveying an astonishing breadth of fascinating material. Clive Wynne and Monique Udell are to be congratulated for writing a book that is unusually clear and delightfully engaging." - John Pearce, Professor of Psychology, Cardiff University, UK "This is the best undergraduate comparative cognition text book that I have found on the market. It is readable yet thorough and importantly uses the content to emphasize critical thinking. The second edition picks up well where the first edition left off." - Thomas Zentall, Professor of Psychology, University of Kentucky, USA
