This book begins with a discussion on computer-animated stimuli to investigate visual communication in lizards. It then discusses the pretend play in signing chimpanzees; the evolution of TRP channels as mediators of pheromone signaling; and the role of cuticular hydrocarbon-based chemical communication in prezygotic reproductive isolation.
