Reaching Into Thought: The Minds of the Great Apes
ISBN: 9780521471688 / Angielski / Twarda / 478 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych.

Here, contributors emphasize the mechanisms involved in building these abilities--especially the lengthy developmental and "enculturation" processes--suggesting changes to current views on how primate and human intelligence have evolved.
