Animals' Best Friends
"How do people who love animals translate that devotion into helping creatures who are not our pets? How do we express our care for animals when that means different things to omnivores and vegetarians-or, say, to hunters and non-hunters? Barbara J. King, a widely read expert on animal cognition and emotion, here guides readers through the difficult choices and deep rewards of turning empathy into action on behalf of animals. King discusses our relationship to animals in five different contexts: our homes, the wild, zoos, our food system, and research facilities such as biomedical laboratories. She offers a host of ways in which each of us can be better, and do better, for animals. Acting to...

How Animals Grieve
“A touching and provocative exploration of the latest research on animal minds and animal emotions” from the renowned anthropologist and author (The Washington Post). Scientists have long cautioned against anthropomorphizing animals, arguing that it limits our ability to truly comprehend the lives of other creatures. Recently, however, things have begun to shift in the other direction, and anthropologist Barbara J. King is at the forefront of that movement, arguing strenuously that we can—and should—attend to animal emotions. With How Animals Grieve, she draws our attention to the specific case of grief, and relates story after story—from fieldsites, farms, homes, and more—of ani...
Autobiography of a Talking Dawg
True to his style the author has once again created a one of a kind, first time piece, that others undoubtedly will soon try and copy. While endless autobiographies have been written - as well bio-poems and autobiographical poetry - careful research was not able to find an author who tells his entire life story through a series of poems. The question most often posed to the author about his urban fiction novels is, "Are you sure these stories are not real?" As a result, he decided to publish a true story and chose poetry as the genre. He is always trying to reach the reader, whose interest is not what it used to be, in the hopes that they can once again recapture the significance of page tur...

Helen Denis and her husband, known simply as "Denis," have put a lifetime of work into their store, ...
Ahab's Rolling Sea
Although Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick is beloved as one of the most profound and enduring works of American fiction, we rarely consider it a work of nature writing—or even a novel of the sea. Yet Pulitzer Prize–winning author Annie Dillard avers Moby-Dick is the “best book ever written about nature,” and nearly the entirety of the story is set on the waves, with scarcely a whiff of land. In fact, Ishmael’s sea yarn is in conversation with the nature writing of Emerson and Thoreau, and Melville himself did much more than live for a year in a cabin beside a pond. He set sail: to the far remote Pacific Ocean, spending more than three years at sea before writing his masterpiece in 185...
