ACP - References from The Language of Animals


		Sources used for The Language of Animals I have examples of the print sources I used for the original book chapters. These all date from 1995 or earlier, but may serve as a starting point for research. More recent sources can be found in the News section of ACP and in sidebars within ACP sections. A Google search or a Google Scholar search should be a big help in finding more up-to-date references.
