[bionet.general] Articles and lit. sources on animal intelligence needed.

MYDEDIJE@pucc.Princeton.EDU (Mikael Yovan Dedijer) (10/27/88)

I am currently working on an a paper on Animal Intelligence.
The paper I envision needs to deal with such ancient and un-
resolved philosophical questions as the nature of consciousness
and self-awareness. There is however an increasing amount of
work done on these questions from a biological and neurological
perspective. The main contributors in this field seem to
be D.R Griffin and J.C Eccles. I would appreciate any references,
preferrably current scientific articles in ethology, sociobiology,
neuroethology, neurobiology, zoosemiotics, and linguistics relating
to the question of animal awareness and thinking.
 
Please send me mail as soon as possible.
 
Thanks in advance.
