{"product_id":"the-evolution-of-culture-in-john-tyler-bonner-9780691023731","title":"The Evolution of Culture in Animals","description":"\u003cp\u003eAnimals do have culture, maintains this delightfully illustrated and provocative book, which cites a number of fascinating instances of animal communication and learning. John Bonner traces the origins of culture back to the early biological evolution of animals and provides examples of five categories of behavior leading to nonhuman culture: physical dexterity, relations with other species, auditory communication within a species, geographic locations, and inventions or innovations. Defining culture as the transmission of information by behavioral rather than genetical means, he demonstrates the continuum between the traits we find in animals and those we often consider uniquely human.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e John Tyler Bonner\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0691023735\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780691023731\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Princeton University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/1983\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 232\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.46h x 5.44w x 0.52d","brand":"John Tyler Bonner","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43925601517823,"sku":"9780691023731","price":48.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_e89adbd4-8d09-48c4-80f4-617dc0f94b30.jpg?v=1681078240","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-evolution-of-culture-in-john-tyler-bonner-9780691023731","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
