Animal Behaviour
Conwy Lloyd Morgan
438 pages~8 hr 43 min read48 chapters$4.99
Where does behavior begin, and does a plant have any? Lloyd Morgan builds the answer from the ground up: the responses of single cells, reflex action, the conduct of plants and animals, and the first flickers of consciousness. A foundational text of comparative psychology. Trace the long climb from reflex to mind.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
