A problem that every student of animal behaviour as a science has to come to terms with is anthropomorphism, which means assuming that animals think and feel more or less as we do. Scientifically it is no longer respectable to make that assumption, but this unusual book sets out to demonstrate from the literature that anthropomorphism still affects the subject in a less visible guise and leads to error.
