Book Description:
|
Behavior in Living Things asks some fascinating questions about animal behavior. Do we eat because it is a particular time, or because we are hungry? What if we see a delicious-smelling snack? The book looks at the difference between instinctive and learned behavior, at reflex actions, and animal and human emotions. It tackles common confusions about the science and shows how topics are relevant to the reader.
