How do we humans actually differ from animals – and in what ways are we the same? Why do we take it for granted that we love some animals and eat others? How much of a dog is still in a Chihuahua? And what connects us to the gill-footed crab? Richly illustrated with fascinating depictions of animals, the book poses captivating questions on every page – sometimes with a twinkle in the eye, sometimes provocatively, but always inspiring. The author and illustrator Anke Bär takes readers on a wild journey of the mind through primeval landscapes, modern cities and the jungle of contradictions.
A surprising book which challenges our view of humans and animals – and invites us to rethink how we live together on this planet.
