Zoodulcis: Our Fascination With Animals

by Lauren Hall Ruddell

Overview

The importance of animals in our lives has been the subject of many books in the last 2 decades. Zoodulcis brings together the research and practice in a unique manner that is both highly scientific yet easily accessed by non-experts. The role that certain types of animals play in human flourishing mentally, physically, and emotionally is explored from the standpoint of theoretical structure and implications, to practice and example. The information is drawn from new discoveries in psychology and neuroanatomy, as well as emerging research from the field of human-animal bond studies. Written in a humorous first-person style, this book will appeal to all animal lovers.
