Summary:
"A book about the other intelligent life on the planet. The mysterious
world
of
dolphins
and their conflicted history with man. Since the dawn of history, humans have felt a kinship with the sleek and beautiful dolphin, an animal whose playfulness, sociability and intelligence seems like an aquatic mirror of mankind. Scientists have discovered
dolphins
recognize themselves in reflections, count, feel despondent, adorn themselves, rescue each other (and humans), deduce, infer, form cliques, throw tantrums, gossip and scheme. Several native peoples trace their lineage to
dolphins
. They are the victims of brutal slaughters as depicted in the documentary The Cove. To swim with a dolphin is a transporting experience, an encounter with a being seemingly so like us, yet so alien. Susan Casey is the author of The Wave and The Devil's Teeth."--Publisher.
