About this product
Product Information
From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The End of Illness comes an ingenious guide to what our fellow animals can teach us about living longer, healthier, happier lives. Mother nature has a lot to teach us, if only we open our eyes. Pigeons and dolphins offer creative strategies for preserving our memories and warding off dementia, while squirrels and pigs harbor secrets for managing chronic pain. Rhinoceroses demonstrate the subtle power of our environments--and how to exercise better--while chimps have surprising parenting tips, not to mention great diet advice. Studying elephants has unlocked insights into preventing cancer, and we can look to giraffes for solutions to cardiovascular issues. Ants reveal the unusual benefits of collaboration and altruism, dogs are masterful mentors in living the good life, prairie voles hold clues to connection, and hitchhikers from our evolutionary past may bring us to the edge of immortality. In The Book of Animal Secrets , visionary physician and biomedical researcher David B. Agus, MD, explores all these ways--and more--that we can harness the wonders of the animal kingdom in our own, very human lives. Filled with lively storytelling and astonishing practical takeaways, this revelatory guide will have you rethinking what's possible for your health and wellbeing--now and for years to come.

Reviews
"Did you know scientists are discovering that studying animals as different as elephants and giraffes, octopuses and voles, is leading to new ways of preventing and treating conditions like cancer, heart disease, and dementia in humans? Dr. David Agus' new book, The Book of Animal Secrets , is absolutely fascinating! You'll learn why playing with a dog - or spending time in nature - is so beneficial to our health, and how strengthening our friendships with each other, hugging a lot, and having an animal or two in our lives can lead to a healthier, happier and longer life.. These secrets are good medicine for the planet as well as its inhabitants." --Jane Goodall, PhD, DBE, primatologist, conservationist, and UN Messenger of Peace
