Illustrating the strikingly similar behavioral patterns and emotional needs of animal and human existence, the author draws his pressing conclusions -- chief among them that mankind must assume its
critical role as steward of the biosphere. No longer can we regard animals as objects for manipulation, experimentation, and exploitation; rather, we must become their protectors as we move toward a rekindled awareness
of the "wild" side of our own nature and greater harmony with the natural world that surrounds us. This book is an earnest and thought-provoking call to end the alienation of man from his environment and from
the wilder side of his own nature. |
