Folk physics for apes : the chimpanzee's theory of how the world works

Folk Physics for Apes offers us a rare glimpse into the workings of another mind, examining how apes perceive and understand the physical world. Describing groundbreaking research, and fiercely challenging many long held assumptions, the book will have broad appeal to evolutionary psychologists, developmental psychologists, and those interested in the sub-disciplines of cognitive science (philosophy, anthropology).
