Abstract
In his attempt to find cognitive traits that set humans apart from nonhuman primates with respect to tool use, Vaesen overlooks the primacy of the environment toward the use of which behavior evolves. The occurrence of a particular behavior is a result of how that behavior has evolved in a complex and changing environment selected by a unique population.
摘要
在试图寻找认知特征，使人类在工具使用方面区别于非人类灵长类动物时，Vaesen 忽视了环境在行为进化中的首要作用。特定行为的出现是该行为在由独特种群选择的复杂且不断变化的环境中进化的结果。
