Abstract
MANY are the writers on animal intelligence, but few have made comparative psychology a subject of scientific investigation by the methods of careful observation and of experiment under conditions allowing of some control. Right welcome, therefore, is Mr. Thorndike's experimental study, of which a brief preliminary notice appeared in NATURE a few weeks ago (vol. lvii. p. 372).
