Praise for "Animals Make Us Human""" "Provocative...We're lucky to have Temple Grandin."" -New York Times""""

A well-written, down-to-earth look into the lives of lots of animals, including animals that make up part of our food chain. Grade: A" - "Rocky Mountain News"

"Packed with fascinating insights, unexpected observations and a wealth of how-to tips, Grandin's peppy work ably challenges assumptions about what makes animals happy." - STARRED "Publishers Weekly"

"The text provides thought-provoking scenarios and references several animal studies...readers will be able to glean new perspectives about animal welfare." -"Library Journal"Praise for "Animals in Translation" "Inspiring . . . Crammed with facts and anecdotes about Temple Grandin's favorite subject: the senses, brains, emotions, and amazing talents of animals."--"New York" "Times Book Review" "A master intermediary between humans and our fellow beasts . . . At once hilarious, fascinating, and just plain weird, "Animals "is one of those rare books that elicits a 'wow' on almost every page. A."--"Entertainment ""Weekly*""" "At times, it is difficult to work out whether this is a book about animal behavior with insight from autism, or a book about autism that uses animal behavior to explain what it is like to be autistic. A major achievement of the book is that it is both."--"Nature"
