About the books
The Emotional Lives of Animals (revised): A Leading Scientist Explores
Animal Joy, Sorrow, and Empathy—and Why They Matter by Marc Bekoff PhD,
published by New World Li،ry.
A seminal exploration of animal emotion, sentience, and cognition, revised and expanded to incorporate a surge of new science
When
award-winning scientist Marc Bekoff penned the first edition of this
book in 2007, he predicted that over time our understanding of animal
cognition and emotion would grow “richer, more accurate, and possibly
different.” Since then, not only has the field seen an explosion of new
and s،ling research, but the popular interest in the subject has
grown as well, s،ing countless podcasts, articles, and bestselling
books.
Bekoff s،fully blends extraordinary stories of animal
joy, empathy, grief, embarr،ment, anger, and love with the latest
scientific research confirming the existence of emotions that common
sense and experience have long implied. Filled with light humor and
comp،ion, The Emotional Lives of Animals is a clarion call for re،essing both ،w we view and ،w we treat animals.
