What it's like to be a dog : and other adventures in animal neuroscience
Berns, Gregory2019
Books
What is it like to be a dog? A bat? Or a dolphin? To find out, neuroscientist Gregory Berns and his team did something unique - they persuaded dogs to lie in an MRI scanner while completely awake. This gave them an unparalleled insight into what makes dogs individuals with varying capacities for self-control, different value systems and a complex understanding of human speech. And that was just the beginning. From sea lions to the extinct Tasmanian tiger, Berns provides fascinating glimpses into the inner lives of animals.
