Summary:
"In seven mind-bending and hilarious chapters, Gregg highlights one feature seemingly unique to humans--our use of language, our rationality, our moral systems, our so-called sophisticated consciousness--and compares it to our animal brethren. What emerges is both demystifying and remarkable, and it will change how you look at animals, humans, and the meaning of life itself."-- Publisher.
