Animal Behaviour
by C. Lloyd Morgan
Publisher: Edward Arnold 1920
ISBN/ASIN: B06XZ6Q4SP
Number of pages: 355
Description:
The word 'behaviour' will be employed in the following pages in a wide and comprehensive sense. We shall have to consider, not only the kind of animal behaviour which implies intelligence, sometimes of a high order; not only such behaviour as animal play and courtship, which suggests emotional attributes; but also forms of behaviour which, if not unconscious, seem to lack conscious guidance and control.
