Description
Are animals intelligent? Do they have problems solving abilites? Can they be intentionally deceptive? This book examines these important and fascinating aspects of comparative psychology. It investigates three central areas of animal behaviour - evolutionary explanations of animal behaviour, classical and operant conditioning and social learning in animals. Jo-Anne Cartwright has produced an introductory text suitable for the AQA-A A2 syllabus. It is full of real life examples and will be accessible to students of all levels new to this subject as well as anyone wishing to know more about the diversity and ingenuity of animal behaviour.
