Temple Grandin's "Animals in Translation" speaks in the clear voice of a woman who emerged from the other side of autism, bringing with her an extraordinary message about how animals think and feel.Temple's professional training as an animal scientist and her history as a person with autism have given her a perspective like that of no other expert in the field. Standing at the intersection of autism and animals, she offers unparalleled observations and groundbreaking ideas about both.Autistic people can often think the way animals think -- in fact, Grandin and co-author Catherine Johnson see autism as a kind of way station on the road from animals to humans -- putting autistic people in the perfect position to translate "animal talk." Temple is a faithful guide into their world, exploring animal pain, fear, aggression, love, friendship, communication, learning, and, yes, even animal genius. Not only are animals much smarter than anyone ever imagined, in some cases animals are out-and-out brilliant.The sweep of "Animals in Translation" is immense, merging an animal scientist's thirty years of study with her keen perceptions as a person with autism -- Temple sees what others cannot.Among its provocative ideas, the book: LIargues that language is not a requirement for consciousness -- and that animals do have consciousness LIapplies the autism theory of "hyper-specificity" to animals, showing that animals and autistic people are so sensitive to detail that they "can't see the forest for the trees" -- a talent as well as a "deficit" LIexplores the "interpreter" in the normal human brain that filters out detail, leaving people blind to much of the reality that surrounds them -- a reality animals and autistic people see, sometimes all too clearly LIexplains how animals have "superhuman" skills: animals have animal genius LIcompares animals to autistic savants, declaring that animals may in fact be autistic savants, with special forms of genius that normal people do not possess and sometimes cannot even see LIexamines how humans and animals use their emotions to think, to decide, and even to predict the future LIreveals the remarkable abilities of handicapped people and animals LImaintains that the single worst thing you can do to an animal is to make it feel afraid/ULTemple 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 in her bones.

评分人类由于自身特性及文化影响容易太沉溺抽象思维,太过抽象化,现在有必要往形象化偏一点。 形象思维:身体力行、身临其境,去看去听,去感知。 动物思考是更具象化,缺乏归纳,更真实的反应世界,容易发现差异,但较难找到事物的联系。 人类思考抽象化、概念化,过度归纳,生活...

评分我们总是会听到这样的说法:人类把狼驯服成了狗。其实狼也驯化了人类,如果人类的祖先在十几万年前就开始和狼同居开始将它们驯化为狗,人类社会的很多特性可能是从狼学来的,比如一夫一妻,结交朋友,复杂的社会结构,捕猎时的团体作战,这些都是大猩猩所没有的。 现今,人类和...
