HOW TO BE ANIMAL: WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN

At the heart of our psychology is a profound struggle with being animal. As well as piecing together the mystery of how this psychology evolved, this book examines its wide-reaching effects on our lives, from our politics to the ways we distance ourselves from other species. We travel from the origins of Homo sapiens through the agrarian and industrial revolutions, the age of the internet, and on to futures of AI and human-machine interface. We have a chance to tell ourselves a new story, to realise that if we matter, so does everything else.
