既然生物的认知只是ta对自己环境的应对,那么我们还可能进一步说,认知和智力并不是什么特别了不起的东西,演化想要造出来就能造出来,就跟肌肉一样,就看能不能用得着。这大概可以让研究智能的人类多一点平常心。

Frans de Waal is a Dutch/American biologist who has been named among Time magazine's 100 Most Influential People. The author of The Bonobo and the Atheist and Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are? among many other works, he is the C. H. Candler Professor at Emory University and director of the Living Links Center at the Yerkes Primate Center. He lives in Atlanta, Georgia.
What separates your mind from an animal's? Maybe you think it's your ability to design tools, your sense of self, or your grasp of past and future – all traits that have helped us define ourselves as the planet's preeminent species. But in recent decades, these claims have been eroded, or even disproven, by a revolution in the study of animal cognition: take the octopuses that use coconut shells as tools; the elephants that classify humans by age, gender, and language; or Ayumu, the young male chimpanzee at Kyoto University whose flash memory puts that of humans to shame. Based on research involving crows, dolphins, parrots, sheep, wasps, bats, whales, and of course chimpanzees and bonobos, Frans de Waal demonstrates that we have grossly underestimated both the scope and the depth of animal intelligence. He offers a firsthand account of how science has stood traditional behaviorism on its head by revealing how smart animals really are.

评分英国作家道格拉斯·亚当斯写过一本科幻小说叫《银河系漫游指南》。小说一开头,人们在报纸上读到一条消息,地球上的海豚都消失不见了。主人公的外星人朋友告诉了他真相,地球要被毁灭了,因为要在地球所在的地方修建一条超空间快速通道。 换句话说,银河系要修建高速公路,而地...
评分阅读的初衷:自去年读了戴蒙德的《枪炮、细菌与钢铁》(GGS)以来,对从演化的视角来理解人类有浓厚的兴趣。最近看了北大顾红雅老师的《生物演化》课程,一下子又打开了对很多物种的认知。再加上近来在读《认知心理学》教材,对认知也非常有兴趣。所以我想这是一本从演化心理学的...
