Trade paperback. Condition: As New. Why would a cow lick a tractor? Why are collies getting dumber? Why do dolphins sometimes kill for fun? How can a parrot learn to spell? How did wolves teach man to evolve? Temple Grandin draws upon a long, distinguished career as an animal scientist and her own experiences with autism to deliver an extraordinary message about how animals act, think, and feel. She has a perspective like that of no other expert in the field, which allows her to offer unparalleled observations and groundbreaking ideas.People with autism can often think the way animals think, putting them in the perfect position to translate "animal talk." Grandin is a faithful guide into their world, exploring animal pain, fear, aggression, love, friendship, communication, learning, and, yes, even animal genius. The sweep of Animals in Translation is immense and will forever change the way we think about animals. Seller Inventory # SKU2010023705

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Later printing. 5 x 8, 360 pgs, index, notes. Among its provocative ideas this book argues that language is not a requirement for consciousness; applies the autism theory of 'hyper-specificity' to animals showing that animals and autistic people are so sensitive to detail that they can't 'see the forest for the trees', explores the 'interpreter' in the human brain that filters out detail, examines how humans and animals use their emtions to think, and more.
