Taking a comparative approach, this volume provides a set of clear methodological tools and practical tips for the successful investigation of animal cognition across a variety of species. The authors introduce a range of taxa, from chimpanzees to ants, with a focus on perceptual and socio-ecological characteristics, and cognitive skills.
