How is Animals in Translation different from every other animal book ever published?Animals in Translation is like no other animal book because of Temple Grandin. As an animal scientist and a person with autism, her professional training and personal history have created a perspective like no other thinker in the field, and this is her exciting, groundbreaking view of the intersection of autism and animal. Unlike other well-known writers in the field of animal behavior -- When Elephants Weep by psychoanalyst Jeffrey Moussaleff Masson, How Dogs Think by psychologist and dog trainer Stanley Coren, and The Hidden Life of Dogs by anthropologist Elizabeth Marsha Thomas -- Temple Grandin is an animal scientist who has devoted the last 30 years of her life to the study of animals. Animals in Translation is the culmination of that life's work -- a book whose sweep is huge, including just about anything that gallops, trots, slithers, walks, or flies. Temple Grandin is like no other author on the subject of animals because of her training and because of her autism; understanding animals is in her blood and her bones. Animals in Translation ... * redefines consciousness and argues that language is not a requirement for consciousness * categorizes autism as a way station on the road from animals to humans * explores the "Interpreter" in the normal human brain that filters out detail, creating an unintentional blindness that animals and autistics do not suffer from * applies the autism theory of "hyper-specificity' to animals, meaning that there is no forest, only trees, trees, and more trees * argues that the single worst thing you cando to an animal is make it feel afraid * examines how humans and animals use their emotions, including to predict the future * compares animals to autistic savants, in fact declaring that animals may be autistic savants, with special forms of genius that normal people cannot see * explains that most animals have "super-human" skills: animals have animal genius * reveals the abilities handicapped people, and animals, have that normal people don't

读后感

人类是一个自大的种族。 自两百万年以前走出非洲大陆，人类拓展了疆域，创造了工具，改变了生态环境，毁灭了许多物种，也驯化了许多物种。被驯化的它们一直陪伴在我们身边。它们是马，是牛，是动力；是猫，是狗，是伙伴；是鸡，是鸭，是食物。它们是我们周围不说话的动物。 分...  

动物对人们喜爱的杀伤力是无穷的。太萌？太帅？太猛？对于那些喜欢动物，或者在工作中要和动物接触的人而言，你真的了解动物嘛？知名动物学家葛兰汀（Temple Grandin）和神经心理学领域的研究者及作家约翰逊（Catherine Johnson）合著的《我们为什么不说话：动物的行为、情感...  

【读品】罗豫/文 童话世界里，能听懂动物语言的，多是天赋异禀之人。小说和电影中，不时也有拉风的动物当配角，它们和人灵犀相同，关键时刻还能舍己救人。但在动物学家眼里，这些大都是人类一厢情愿的文学叙事。对于那些喜欢动物，或者在工作中要和动物接触的人而言，一本真正...  

本来冲着看趣味读物的，没想到遇到了一本专业性挺强（对我来说）的另一种视角的认知学书籍。不仅妙趣横生，又干货满满，对半年前学习的认知心理学有了拓宽认识和巩固。因此对多抓鱼的推荐功能多了很多好感~几点感想如下： 1、每种/个动物，每个人都有不同个性，和动物、人类产...

文/宝木笑 不知从何时开始，人类研究心理学的过程中开始充满着动物们的身影，动物们除了要满足人们的捕猎欲、口舌欲、观赏欲等之外，还要成为人们的实验品。心理学史上从来不缺少“明星”，比如巴甫洛夫的狗、斯金纳的鸽子、托尔曼的老鼠等等。小时候我们在生物课上就学到过巴...
