“This class may be an interesting one for comparative neurobiology, but there is simply too much adaptationist story telling. To the trained ear, Gerald Schneider is clearly not an evolutionary biologist. There are a lot of good data in here to mine and synthesize in a better way, but there is no phylogenetic context and nothing here fundamentally unifies the information in a cogent and synthetic framework. The class has so much potential, but the lack of Schneider's evolutionary training -- despite the course title -- leaves a lot to be desired.”
