Overview
How do children and other young animals learn to communicate? This volume shows that vocal development is often similar in birds, primates, dolphins and humans, and that the influence of social companions during development is critical to the structure, comprehension and usage of vocal communication. Furthermore, it shows that vocal development is not just for the young, but is a continuous process throughout life. This book will be required reading for all those interested in human or animal behaviour, especially communication.Book Details
