Reviews
'[Sachser's] book made me think and rethink how human's views of other animals are far too often human-centric, to the detriment of how we perceive and treat other animals because they supposedly don't really know what's happening or don't suffer like we do ... I hope Much Like Us finds its way into a wide array of courses at the undergraduate and graduate level including animal behavior and comparative psychology. It's also readable by the general public who need to know what we're actually learning through rigorous research about the thoughts, feelings, and emotions of other animals. I'm sure many people will be surprised by what we really know.' Michelle Quirk, Psychology Today, 'A masterful synthesis of science and storytelling by one of the world's leading experts in animal behaviour. In Much Like Us, Sachser's remarkable ability to communicate scientifically complex concepts with clarity and humour is on full display. The result: a remarkable book providing a new understanding of the origins and nature of 'animal' (non-human and human) behaviour. His remarkable new book contains many of the insights his scientific colleagues have admired for decades. Yet, his engaging and elegant writing make this book deeply accessible for a wide range of audiences: from the academic scholars and their students to anyone interested in why and how we human animals came to behave as we do. A deeply insightful and powerful book, which transforms our understanding of not only behaviour, but of our place as humans within the tree of life.' B. Natterson-Horowitz, Harvard Medical School, USA
