The Inner Life of Animals

Love, Grief, and Compassion: Surprising Observations of a Hidden World

De: Peter Wohlleben

Narrado por: Mike Grady

Through vivid stories of devoted pigs, two-timing magpies, and scheming roosters, The Inner Life of Animals weaves the latest scientific research into how animals interact with the world with Peter Wohlleben's personal experiences in forests and fields.

Horses feel shame, deer grieve, and goats discipline their kids. Ravens call their friends by name, rats regret bad choices, and butterflies choose the very best places for their children to grow up.

In this, his latest book, Peter Wohlleben follows the hugely successful The Hidden Life of Trees with insightful stories into the emotions, feelings, and intelligence of animals around us. Animals are different from us in ways that amaze us - and they are also much closer to us than we ever would have thought.

Reseñas de la Crítica

"Like The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben's The Inner Life of Animals will rock your world. Surprising, humbling, and filled with delight, this book shows us that animals think, feel and know in much the same way as we do - and that their lives are, to them, as precious as ours are to us." (Sy Montgomery, author of The Soul of an Octopus)

"With the same charm and clarity that drew so many readers to The Hidden Life of Trees, Peter Wohlleben has produced another gem. I found delight on every page, thanks to the author's rare skill at blending scientific discoveries with his own wealth of insightful personal experiences. Read this book, and never again doubt that we share the Earth with other beings living rich and colorful lives." (Jonathan Balcombe, author of What a Fish Knows)

"Animal lovers everywhere will be enthralled by The Inner Life of Animals. Find out what squirrels, deer, and other animals really do out in the woods." (Temple Grandin)

Great Read about Animals Emotions and Science

Already and animal lover (so I don't eat them) and this book made me very happy to read!

Valuable, sincere, informative.

I really enjoyed the way the book was written and narrated.
It was informational and entertaining without being overbearing.
We could all use a leaf out of this guys book on perspective, how we live our lives, and how we thing of the world around us.

Imperative thinking

This book represents a beginning of modern imperative thinking; if most life is to continue to exist on earth. And to have some semblance of quality.
Strikes a path toward empathy, compassion and respect for all forms of life; which is well over due.
