Routledge Research in Comparative Psychology

Routledge Research in Comparative Psychology provides key texts on the most important, innovative and influential topics in Comparative Psychology. Each volume focuses on a key topic in the field and contain chapters dedicated to individual species or taxa, with additional chapters drawing together cross-species data to outline methodological issues and current theoretical debates in the field. It also provides links between researchers working on different species, who may not ordinarily cross paths, but who could benefit from sharing methodological and theoretical expertise and ideas.

This is the first series on Comparative Psychology to be aimed at an academic audience and is a forum to showcase the extraordinary research that is being carried out in Comparative Psychology to offer a go-to resource for academics and students who are working in, or are interested in joining, the field. We aim to recruit authors who are making current, state-of-the art contributions to Comparative Psychology research. In many cases, these will be researchers who are early on in their careers, who may not ordinarily be given the opportunity to contribute to a series such as this.
