Synopsis
The big question in the science of psychology is: Why are human cognition and behavior so different from the capabilities of every other animal species on Earth - including our close genetic relations, the chimpanzees? This book provides a coherent answer by examining those aspects of the human brain that have made triadic forms of perception and cognition possible. Mechanisms of dyadic association sufficiently explain animal perception, cognition, and behavior but a three-way associational mechanism is required to explain the human talents for language, tool-making, harmony perception, pictorial depth perception, and the joint attention that underlies all forms of social cooperation.

Book Description
This book describes the basic features of specifically human psychology - the ways in which we perceive, think, and act that are different from all other animal species. Topics include the traditional themes of language and tool-making as well as less-commonly discussed subjects such as music and visual art. The mental processes of animals are fundamentally dyadic (associational), whereas the human mind demonstrates an ability for triadic cognition.
