Learn the science behind how being red helps animals survive in the wild.

For thousands of years, in the myths and folktales of people around the world, animals have spoken in human tongues. Western and non-Western literary and folkloric traditions are filled with both speaking animals, some of whom even narrate or write their own autobiographies. Animals speak, famously, in children’s stories and in cartoons and films, and today, social networking sites and blogs are both sites in which animals—primarily pets—write about their daily lives and interests. Speaking for Animals is a compilation of chapters written from a variety of disciplines that attempts to get a handle on this cross cultural and longstanding tradition of animal speaking and writing. It looks at speaking animals in literature, religious texts, poetry, social networking sites, comic books, and in animal welfare materials and even library catalogs, and addresses not just the "whys" of speaking animals, but the implications, for the animals and for ourselves.

Frogs are not the only green animals in our world. Author Melissa Stewart introduces new readers to a variety of green animals in this easy-to-read book. This book lets readers learn to recognize simple words as they are repeated throughout the text.

Modernization and conversion to world religions are threatening the survival of traditional belief systems, leaving behind only mysterious traces of their existence. This book, based upon extensive research conducted over a period of nearly four decades, brings scientific rigor to one of the questions that have always attracted human curiosity: that of the origin of the dragon. The author demonstrates that both dragons and rainbows are cultural universals, that many of the traits that are attributed to dragons in widely separated parts of the planet are also attributed to rainbows, and that the number and antiquity of such shared traits cannot be attributed to chance or common inheritance, but rather to common cognitive pathways by which human psychology has responded to the natural environment in a wide array of cultures around the world.

Have you ever wondered how some dogs know when an earthquake is about to hit? Or how some cats know how to identify and soothe their owner's chronic pain? These abilities may seem inexplicable at first, but they can, in fact, be explained through science. Michelle Waitzman has compiled a range of heart-warming animal stories that cause us to suspect animals are 'psychic', alongside the fascinating science that accounts for these phenomena. Discover tales of dogs detecting cancer; cats who can alert their owners to incoming storms; animals who rescue people from fires; those that can 'predict' the future; as well as pets with profound powers of empathy who stay true to their owners beyond the grave.
