#66 Marc Bekoff - The Emotional Lives of Animals: A Leading scientist Explores Animal Joy, Sorrow, and Empathy and Why They Matter

Greetings to you Bookshelvers!

What a corker of an episode we have for you today! Yet another returning guest here at Barks HQ today as we talk to the award winning scientist and all round brilliant human being, the one and only, Marc Bekoff about his wonderful book The Emotional Lives of Animals.

Marc has recently revised this ground breaking book (first released in 2007) and we thought it would be a great opportunity to catch up and talk about it. Marc's predictions that, after the books initial release, our understanding of animal cognition and emotion would grow “richer, more accurate, and possibly different,” has certainly come true with an explosion of research that has warranted this revision and super charged what was already a "must own" book in the stratosphere of bookshelf must haves.

Full of engrossing animal stories of empathy, joy, grief, anger, embarrassment and love we defy anyone reading it to leave this book without a new found and concrete understanding of the depths of non human animals lived experiences. As we know, with knowledge also comes responsibility and this book shines a big bright light on how we should use this knowledge to inform how humans can go forward and change how we care for and treat the animals we share our lives with. Jump aboard Bookshelvers... You're gonna love it!

Marc Facts:

Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals, is professor emeritus of ecology and evolutionary biology at the University of Colorado, Boulder, and a former Guggenheim fellow. He has published more than a thousand scientific and popular essays and thirty books. He lives in Boulder.
