- Synopsis
- In this work, the author shows us how whimsical our attitudes toward animals, birds, and fish can be. Why do we like some animals but not others? Research has shown that the human brain is wired to think about animals and inanimate objects differently, and Herzog reveals how we can look at the exact same animal very differently given its context. This book invites us to think deeply about how we view animals, how we make inconsistent ethical choices regarding their welfare, and how we limit our empathy for their well-being.
