'Whiten and Byrne are to be congratulated for collecting this second set of essays which are an important addition to the field of 'cognitive ethology'.' Aubrey Manning, The Times Literary Supplement
'Best of all, Mach II is in affordable paperback form the outset, and compels just as much attention as did Mach I.' W. C. McGrew, Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute
'If you think you might want to read this book, yes, you do! That is, if you are interested in primate cognition, in 'mindreading' ... or in the evolution of human social understanding, then Mach II is a book to seize on.' Animal Cognition
The 'Machiavellian Intelligence Hypothesis' implies that monkeys, apes, and humans first developed intelligence to manipulate and outmanoeuvre others socially. This new volume extends and evaluates the ideas first explored in 1988 in an essential guide for all those interested in the behavioural sciences, primatology, and evolution.
