The Biology of Traditions: Models and Evidence

Review of the hardback: '… essential reading …' Animal Behaviour Review of the hardback: '… a valuable addition to the library of any primatologist with an interest in social learning.' Primate Eye Review of the hardback: 'I think this volume is worth reading in order to be familiar with various studies of tradition and social learning, especially those of capuchin monkeys. Readers of this book will find a very wide range of interests regarding tradition or culture in animals that could even bridge various existing research domains.' Primates Review of the hardback: '… a rich and comprehensive volume, grounded in traditional ethology, that offers a timely complement to a library of volumes on social learning in animals. Fragaszy and Perry have assembled interesting and provocative contributions from some of the leading researchers in the field of social learning … we heartily recommend this book … much of the material in this book, and especially the first and last chapters, would be of value to any researcher working in the field.'
