Genre: Art
ISBN:

This bibliography is an introductory guide to the literature of African art and is intended to be a critical ""best books"" list. It is addressed both to the newcomer as a beginning reading list, and to the specialist as a bibliographic aide-memoire to some of the standard books in the field. As such, it is highly selective, and the very inclusion of a title in this guide constitutes a recommendation, even though particular titles may have limitations. Annotations serve as a guide to the contents.

John Smith, University of Pennsylvania This book summarizes the state of our knowledge about communication in cephalopods, including squids, cuttlefishes, octopuses, and related forms, and assesses the comparative and theoretical implications of what we know.
