Description
The second volume of this work examines the perception of complex signals. It includes a section that considers serial pattern recognition of acoustic signals, electroreception and mechanoreception in certain fishes and recognition of facial features in conspecifics, among other topics. A separate section on communication describes studies that deal with the perception of human speech sounds and conspecific signals in the context of both laboratory and field experiments.
