Description:

The philosopher Raimond Gaita has always been fascinated by animals-their obvious intelligence and disturbing brutality, their uncanny responsiveness to our moods and needs, and the deep feelings they elicit from us and seem to return. In this marvelous, luminous book, Gaita trains the lens of philosophy on the mystery and beauty of the animals he has known and loved.
