Rezension zu „Dog Behaviour, Evolution, and Cognition “
...both honest and representative of current thinking on the origins and importance of canine ethology. Claire L. Corridan Anthrozoos Miklosi's review is authoritative and exhaustive. Current Biology Adam Miklosi's new book...will be a landmark contribution to the study of animal behaviour, evolution and cognition. Current Biology This book is distinct in its approach to canine behaviour from a convergent evolutionary viewpoint, thus it is not directly comparable to any other book on canine behaviour and fills a unique need in the field of behavioural science. DOODY'S Notes The 'must-reads' at the end of each chapter are a valuable guide to the literature, should the reader want to learn more. What makes this book especially valuable is that Miklosi reviews not only the very recent, but also the less recent literature. Trends in Cognitive Science, Vol. 12. No.6
