She has visions. She inhabits the consciousness of a bat, an elephant, and a chicken. These animal dreams are strange and beautiful and build deep empathy. But her visions force Jo to act - to free the animals - and they push her to the edge of insanity. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eInari, a free-spirited teacher of philosophy, is Jo's only hope. Together they wrangle the intellectual foundations of a civilization which tells us that animals are objects, man holds dominion, and nature exists for us to exploit. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis is not your typical love story. It's a mind-bending exploration of sentience, personhood, classification, and indigenous wisdom; and a guide to living in a world that's dying. But, make no mistake, \u003ci\u003eAnimals Are People\u003c\/i\u003e is a love story - of animals, people, and the wonders of being alive.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Peter Morville\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798991363303\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Semantic Studios\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/16\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 338\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.86lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.76d","brand":"Peter Morville","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46881280950527,"sku":"9798991363303","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_695a769b-23bb-4000-807f-109a749413de.jpg?v=1747971195","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/animals-are-people-peter-morville-9798991363303","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
