Animal Tool Behavior: The Use and Manufacture of Tools by Animals
Robert W. Shumaker, Kristina R. Walkup, Benjamin B. Beck
When published in 1980, Benjamin B. Beck’s Animal Tool Behavior was the first volume to catalog and analyze the complete literature on tool use and manufacture in non-human animals. Beck showed that animals—from insects to primates—employed different types of tools to solve numerous problems. His work inspired and energized legions of researchers to study the use of tools by a wide variety of species.
