Excerpt from Animal Behaviour
My book on "Animal Life and Intelligence" being out of print, I undertook to revise it for a new Edition. As the work of revision proceeded, however, it appeared that the amended treatment would not fall conveniently under the previous scheme of arrangement. I therefore decided to write a new book under the title of "Animal Behaviour." A few passages from the older work have been introduced, and some of the observations and conclusions already published in greater detail in "Habit and Instinct" have been, summarized. But it will be found that these occupy a relatively small space in the following pages.

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book explores the fascinating world of animal behavior, delving into a wide range of actions and reactions that animals exhibit. The author moves beyond simple observation, examining the intricate mechanisms at play, from the cellular level to the complex interplay of instinct and intelligence. The book challenges common assumptions about animal consciousness, arguing that even seemingly complex behaviors like social interactions and courtship may not always be driven by conscious thought. Instead, the author suggests that many of these actions are rooted in organic processes, driven by the intricate interactions of cells and governed by biological imperatives. By considering the behavior of cells and their role in the development of organisms, the author sheds light on the delicate and powerful processes of life. The book explores the complex interplay of physical and chemical reactions that underlie animal actions, revealing the intricate dance of nature at its most fundamental level. This book offers a compelling and insightful look at the nature of behavior, raising important questions about the very essence of life and the meaning of consciousness.
