Alice B. reviewed Made for Each Other: The Biology of the Human-Animal Bond on + 3563 more book reviews
I am an animal lover, have been around them most of my life -- cats, dogs, horses --and have found, during the rare periods when I didn't have at least one of the above, that my life was curiously empty and sort of gray. And now, I understand why. This is a compelling account of the history of animal/human interdependence, gracefully written, with lots of insights into both sides of the equation. Olmert writes very clearly, with plenty of detail, but is not forbiddingly technical. Lots and lots of insights, great stories -- just a wonderful book! It's a keeper!!
