Descrizione Ebook The Animal Mind
The advance of comparative psychology during the past nine years has been remarkable. In preparing a second edition of this book I have tried to include every newly discovered fact of the first importance, but the literature is now so extensive that in order to keep the bibliography within reasonable limits, I have had to exer cise more selection than I did in preparing the bibliography for the first edition. For like reasons, the text of the book does not enter so fully into detail in describing the results of a particular investigation as was possible when the material at hand was so much less in amount. More than half the book has been completely rewritten, including the chapters on Vision, on Spatially Determined Reactions, and on The Modification of Conscious Pro cesses by Individual Experience. I hope that the edition represents an advance upon its predecessor, not only by including many newly ascertained facts, but also by pre senting its subject matter in more logical form.
