Spinning Apes and Children, Mental Health, Learning

Whether in the wild or captivity, as part of their normal, regular behavior, great apes will hold on to a vine, raise themselves in the air, and spin themselves around and around at high speeds until they become dizzy. What does this have to do with our own evolution and behavior, and what are its implications for children, mental health, and learning? Here to discuss all this is Professor Adriano Lameira of The University of Warwick in Coventry, England.
