The Social Lives of Animals - by Ashley Ward (Hardcover)

The Social Lives of Animals by Ashley Ward is a groundbreaking book that challenges our assumptions about animal behavior and society.

Through a global search, Ward reveals surprising, delightful, and occasionally downright strange ways that animals build and manage societies, often with both members of their own species and others.

By studying animal societies on their own terms, Ward shows that human social life may not be so unique, and that we can learn more about animals by studying how they work together than by how they compete.

With a light hand, Ward succeeds in compelling readers to see social animals as kindred spirits, making this book an essential read for anyone interested in animal behavior or the natural world.
