br A wideranging take on why humans have a troubled relationship with being an animal and why we need a better onebrHuman are the most inquisitive emotional imaginative aggressive and baffling animals on the planet But we are also an animal that does not think it is an animal How well do we really know ourselvesHow to Be Animal tells a remarkable story of what it means to be human and argues that at the heart of our existence is a profound struggle with being animal We possess a psychology that seeks separation between humanity and the rest of nature and we have invented grand ideologies to magnify this As well as piecing together the mystery of how this mindset evolved Challengers book examines the widereaching ways in which it affects our lives from our politics to the way we distance ourselves from other species We travel from the origin of homo sapiens through the agrarian and industrial revolutions the age of the internet and on to the futures of AI and humanmachine interface Challenger examines how technology influences our sense of our own animal nature and our relationship with other species with whom we share this fragile planetThat we are separated from our own animality is a delusion according to Challenger Blending nature writing history and moral philosophy How to Be Animal is both a fascinating reappraisal of what it means to be human and a robust defense of what it means to be an animal.

The use of animals by psychotherapists has been a growing trend. Psychological problems treated include emotional and behavioral problems, attachment issues, trauma, and developmental disorders. An influential 1970s survey suggests that over 20 percent of therapists in the psychotherapy division of the American Psychological Association incorporated animals into their treatment in some fashion. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the number is much higher today.Since Yeshiva psychologist Boris Levinson popularized the use of animals in the 1960s, Israel has come to be perhaps the most advanced country in the world in the area of animal-assisted psychotherapy (AAP). This is true especially in the area of training programs, theory-building, and clinical practice. Great effort has been put into understanding the mechanisms behind AAP, as well as into developing ethical guidelines that take into account the therapist\'s responsibility toward both client and animal.This book exposes the world to the theory and practice of AAP as conceived and used in Israel. It emphasizes evidence-based and clinically sound applications, differentiating between AAP, a psychotherapeutic approach, and AAE (animal-assisted education) and AAA (animal-assisted activities), both of which are psychoeducational. Not anyone and his/her dog can become an animal-assisted therapist, and this volume demonstrates not only the promise of animal-assisted psychotherapeutic approaches, but also some of the challenges the field still needs to overcome to gain widespread legitimacy. What kinds of moral challenges arise from encounters between species in laboratory science? Animal Ethos draws on ethnographic engagement with academic labs in which experimental research involving nonhuman species provokes difficult questions involving life and death, scientific progress, and other competing quandaries. Whereas much has been written on core bioethical values that inform regulated behavior in labs, Lesley A. Sharp reveals the importance of attending to lab personnel’s quotidian and unscripted responses to animals. Animal Ethos exposes the rich—yet poorly understood—moral dimensions of daily lab life, where serendipitous, creative, and unorthodox responses are evidence of concerted efforts by researchers, animal technicians, veterinarians, and animal activists to transform animal laboratories into moral scientific worlds.
