Review


"Beyond Words will have a deep impact on many readers, for it elevates our relationships with animals to a higher plane....Along with Darwin's Origin and Richard Dawkins's Selfish Gene, BEYOND WORDS marks a major milestone in our evolving understanding of our place in nature.  Indeed it has the potential to change our relationship with the natural world." 

--Tim Flannery, The New York Review of Books
