CHAPTER

Empathy in Other Creatures

M at the core of this book is a call to extend that empathy in its fullest measure to all the other creatures we share the world with. There's many layers of stories in the book, including what might it be like to experience the world as a bat or an octopus or a manityd. And i love the idea of having better f sempathy, more sampathy for our fellow animals through the device of imagining. The mere act of imagination is such a very innately human thing to do and also deeply rewarding.
