David Williams, London, 'Second edition, revised, 1997'. Soft Cover. 'Animals possess innate powers of generalization which make wide us of the knowledge they gain from experience. An animal finds that a certain response to the same situation will have the same outcome-- and acts accordingly. Thi is a case of what we shall call simple trial-and-error learning. But it may also believe a different response to a different situation will also have that outcome-- and again acts accordingly. Here intelligence may be involved. The two responses are said to be linked and, if they are really likely to have the same end, to converge. Links between converging responses explain how an animal behaves sensibly in situations it may never have encountered before.'
