Animal Learning and Cognition Summary

Animal Learning and Cognition by N. J. Mackintosh (University of Cambridge, U.K.)

How do animals learn? By what means can animals be conditioned?

Sure to represent a benchmark of a vast literature from diverse disciplines, this reference work is a useful addition to any library devoted to animal learning, conditioning behavior, and interaction.
