Recenzii

'290 pages of inspiration doctors can either take from animals or already have'
‘Funny, fascinating and beautifully written. More than that it is moving and awe inspiring… I can’t think of a more important topic for everyone on the planet to engage with right now'
'Morgan draws on the similarities between humans and animals to show how much we can learn from them by understanding them better' 
'A fun and fascinating dive into the physiology of the animal kingdom and what it means for the medicine we practise'
'In humanity's quest to tackle some of our biggest health challenges, the animal kingdom can provide a rich and often surprising source of inspiration. In this dazzling book, full of extraordinary revelations, the reader is transported on an intriguing journey through the natural world and how it is helping to inspire doctors around the world on the frontiers of medicine'
'Anyone interested in a One Medicine approach will find this book an interesting introduction. Reciprocity is not just what animals can do for humans, but what humans can do for animals. We are stronger together and that is why Dr Morgan’s book is a wonderful step in that direction'
