Overview

Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson's groundbreaking When Elephants Weep explored emotions in the animal kingdom, particularly those of wild animals. Now, in a book that is as fascinating--and sure to be as controversial--as his earlier work, Masson reveals startling evidence that barnyard creatures have complex feelings too, such as love, loyalty, friendship, sadness, grief, and sorrow. Weaving together history, literature, science, and his own vivid experiences observing pigs, cows, sheep, goats, and chickens, Masson bears witness to the emotions and intelligence of these remarkable animals, each possessing distinct qualities. Shattering the lingering myth of the dumb animal without feelings, the author has written a revolutionary book that is sure to stir human emotions far and wide. Reader Tim Jerome's extensive theatrical background enhances Masson's penetrating prose.
