Cognitive processes such as perception, learning, memory and decision making play an important role in mate choice, foraging and many other behaviours. In this review, I summarize a few key ideas about animal cognition developed in a recent book (Shettleworth 1998, Cognition, Evolution and Behaviour) and briefly review some areas in which interdisciplinary research on animal cognition is curren...

A configuration of unit cubes in three dimensions with integer coordinates is called an animal if the boundary of their union is homeomorphic to a sphere. Shermer discovered several animals from which no single cube may be removed such that the resulting configurations are also animals [16]. Here we obtain a dual result: we give an example of an animal to which no cube may be added within its m...

The spatial and temporal aspects of the geophysical environment act as prominent selection forces for the evolution of life on this planet. The spatial features of the environment open up a choice of spatial niches and the temporal aspects on the other hand provide opportunities for adopting different temporal niches. Hence, both the spatial and the temporal properties of the environment togeth...

Yet although the author mentions information modularity throughout the book, the importance of information modularity is not demonstrated emphatically enough. An instructor with this book should consider spending time with students solidifying its importance. Alto...
