Purchase options and add-ons

Throughout the ages, animals have played a significant role in human life. But the relationship between animals and humans is often taken for granted. For example, everyone knows that dogs can be trained to sit, stay, and roll over. But could a dog guide a blind man 2,144 miles down the Appalachian Trail--a difficult feat for a sighted person? Could a cat actually defend a sleeping infant from a deadly rattlesnake that is prepared to strike? Could a dolphin really save a person who is drowning at sea? Could a monkey communicate using English?

Defying facts as we know them, these stories detail the intelligence, bravery, and skill of animals. They make us take a second look at creatures who have been viewed as being driven largely by instinct, and they begin to reveal the mysteries of animal intelligence.

Interesting, Informative, and Above All, Very Interesting!

Reviewed in the United States on July 29, 2010

Mysteries of Animal Intelligence is a thoroughly inspiring, if sometimes too fantastic to believe, read. There are so many short stories about how various of animals display their keen intelligence to serve mankind. And there are stories chronicling acts of bravery that have saved humans. Not only limited to just cats and dogs, you will see many kinds of animals in the book such as birds, fish, dolphins, whales, monkeys, woodpeckers, beavers, worms, and rhinoceros. Mysteries of Animal Intelligence will talk about birth, life, death, motherly love, feelings, emotions, intelligence, biological development, and behaviors. There is a lot of interesting by-side information as how certain species are like and how things really work with animals. As great as the book is, I didn't like the animal intelligence test in the end of the book, and I found it demeaning and too simplistic. All in all, Mysteries of Animal Intelligence is a wonderful book and a must-read for all animal lovers.

Recipient enjoyed the book. Information contained was interesting, if slightly stretching credibility, but the quality of the book binding was poor. Newsprint quality pages, etc. Worth the price, but wouldn't have wanted to pay more.

If you are of a scientific "bent" I would not reccomend this book. I learned very little that I hadn't already picked up by other sources.
