About this title

Review

this volume offers a useful overview of current thinking about animal rationality from a variety of academic perspectives. It provides an invaluable point of entry for students new to the area, while offering researchers an insight into the perspectives of those whose approaches to animal rationality are grounded in disciplines other than their own. (Applied Cognitive Psychology, Vol 21)

Rational Animals? is thoughtful, thought-provoking, informative and fascinating and will do a great deal to further interdisciplinary understanding and informed debate. (Journal of Consciousness Studies, Vol 13, No 12)

This is an excellent, informative book on animal rationality. (Doody's Notes)
