What it Means to Be a Dog: And Other Discoveries in Animal Neurobiology
What is it like to be a dog? A bat? A dolphin? Can we, humans, understand this? Now we can, thanks to the scientific work of neuroscientist and popular author Gregory Berns. Together with his colleagues, he trained dogs to...
enter an MRI scanner to observe the processes occurring in the animal's brain and analyze its thoughts and feelings. But dogs are just the beginning. Gregory Berns introduces us to news from the field of wild animal neurobiology: sea lions can catch a dance rhythm, dolphins see using sound, and even about the nearly extinct numbat, which disappeared almost a hundred years ago, much can be learned thanks to neuroimaging. The revolutionary scientific discoveries described by Berns compellingly prove that animals experience, essentially, the same feelings as we do, meaning it's time for humans to reevaluate their attitude towards them.
