In his Manual of Psychology Dr Stout reminds us that "Human language is especially constructed to describe the mental states of human beings, and this means that it is especially constructed so as to mislead us when we at-tempt to describe the working of minds that differ in a great degree from the human."The use of the word "territory" in connection with the sexual life of birds is open to the danger which we are here asked to guard against, and I propose, therefore, be-fore attempting to establish the theory on general grounds, to give some explanation of what the word is in-tended to represent and some account of the exact posi-tion that representation is supposed to occupy in the drama of bird life.
