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
这本书是在之前去图书馆的时候在自然科学书架里面看到的,想看这本书的第一原因是被书名吸引了。因为近来读国外书多一点,就留神注意了一下原书名,发现中文的书名不仅是意译,而且翻译得还很偏,英文标题是这样的“ANIMALS IN TRANSLATION”-直译应该是“翻译动物”或者更贴切...
评分移动互联网已经成为了一个庞然大物,PC时代所没有达成的事情、被手机达成了,而在国内的移动互联网应用中,手握10亿用户的有且只有一个,就是微信。标题的这句话正是微信的缔造者——张小龙在微信上线2天后的凌晨2点,于早已过气的饭否上敲下来的。 而标题的这句话也以另一种...
评分我小时候,所处的环境对知识有种偏见,认为凡是不能提高成绩,不能赚钱的知识,都是无用的——比如研究花草、动物、宇宙或者古生物。 所以拿到这本书的第一感觉,就是“天呐,世界上竟然有做这种研究的人,还研究的这么严肃认真!”这感叹完全是种钦佩,钦佩有人可以研...
评分早阵子有流浪猫惨遭虐杀,爱护动物团体发起反虐杀游行,未几,又有人将已怀孕的野生赤麂,以铁铲活活打死,上周被重判入狱半年。 对于这种凶徒,我们很可能想到「没人性」、「禽兽」、「畜牲」等说法,吊诡的是,这类狠话恰恰把动物视作低人一等的卑贱之物。 我想起今届高考中...
评分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...
