Beyond Words: What Animals Think and Feel - Carl Safina

Beyond the words of Carl Safina, this is a moving read that irrevocably changes the way we view the animal world. The author takes us on an extraordinary journey into the consciousness and emotions of a herd of elephants from a Kenyan national park.

Struggling with poaching and loss of natural habitats, these majestic creatures reveal traits that we have reserved exclusively for humans: fear, grief, but also deep hope.

By combining the latest discoveries in neurobiology with years of field observation, Safina proves that animals have rich, complex personalities. This is a book that opens our eyes and shows how much we share.
