Expanded Description:
Fascinating stories of animal behavior, including grooming and gossip, feeding patterns, dreaming, dominance, and mating behavior. Bekoff offers a thought-provoking look at animal cognition, intelligence, and consciousness and presents vivid examples of animal passions, highlighting the deep emotional lives of our animal kin. All this serves as background for his thoughtful conclusions about humility and animal protection and animal well-being, where he urges a new paradigm of respect, grace, compassion, and love for all animals. An important contribution to our understanding of animal consciousness. Marc's main areas of research include animal behavior, cognitive ethology (the study of animal minds), and behavioral ecology.
