This chapter emphasizes the significance of perceiving animals from their own perspectives rather than through a human lens. It also promotes the book 'Why Animals Talk' and encourages supporting local bookstores.
We humans often like to think we're superior to animals, and that our ability to speak makes us extra special. While it's true that language is unique to humans, we're definitely not the only ones communicating. In fact, many animals have complex ways of talking to each other that we're only just starting to understand. This week, Adam is joined by Dr. Arik Kershenbaum, author of Why Animals Talk: The New Science of Animal Communication, to explore how animals communicate and what that reveals about our place in the natural world.
