Abstract: Folk Physics for Apes The Chimpanzee's Theory of How the World Works. Daniel J. Povinelli. Oxford University Press, Oxford, 2000. 407 pp. $85. ISBN 0-19-857220-4. Povinelli argues that a chimpanzee's understanding of the physical world is radically different from our own; our reviewer finds this conclusion undermined by serious problems with the design and interpretation of the experiments that form the framework for the book.
