The Evolution of Communication
Marc D. Hauser

Bound to become a classic and to stimulate debate and research, _The
Evolution of Communication_ looks at species in their natural
environments as a way to begin to understand what the real units of
analysis of communicating systems are, using arguments about design
and function to illuminate both the origin and subsequent evolution of
each system. It lights the way for a research program that seriously
addresses the problem of how communication systems, including
language, have been designed over the course of evolution.
