Creativity is a fundamental resource for the individual who always has a leading role in conduct. To explain creativity, the book focuses on the concept of animal subjectivity, providing a new explanatory model of behavior capable of overcoming the image of the animal moved by automatisms. This model does not use consciousness as a necessary condition, but is based: 1) on affective components, such as behavioral motives, and 2) cognitive, as tools used by the subject to carry out his purposes. Particular attention is paid to the learning processes showing the subjective character of the experience. One topic addressed is the role of creativity in the evolution of living beings: how an invention, by modifying the niche characteristics, is able to change the selective pressures and the trajectory of phylogeny. Roberto Marchesini explains that creativity is a factor that is anything but rare or exceptional in the animal world-it constitutes a fundamental quality for many aspects of animal life. 606 $aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aCognition in animals 606 $aEthnology 606 $aAnimal Ethics 606 $aAnimal Cognition 606 $aEthnology 615 0$aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aCognition in animals. 615 0$aEthnology. 615 14$aAnimal Ethics. 615 24$aAnimal Cognition. 615 24$aEthnology. 676 $a591.5 676 $a591.5 700 $aMarchesini$b Roberto$0477761 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910586582003321 996 $aThe Creative Animal$92905315 997 $aUNINA
