Product Description
Review
"Anyone interested in animal emotion will want a copy of this book. Bekoff speaks with the unique authority of an expert who is experiencing the success of a revolution in science and ethics that he helped make and that will endure (if we endure) as one of the signal achievements -- along with the expansion of human rights and environmentalism -- of the late twentieth century."
-- "The BARk"
"This thought-provoking book could very likely change your life."
-- "The Animals Voice"
"Marc Bekoff ably presents the richness and variety of the emotions in nonhuman animals -- and doesn't hesitate to draw the ethical conclusions implicit in his findings. I hope this book will be widely read by those who care about animals -- and even more widely by those who don't."
-- Peter Singer, professor of bioethics, Princeton University
Synopsis
A biological researcher draws on years of work in animal communications to support the existence of animal emotions, sharing a wealth of case studies that illuminate the evolutionary purposes of animal feelings while calling for a rethinking of current practices of animal cruelty.
