このコンテンツについて
Poison frog fathers carry tadpoles on their backs. Killer whale grandmothers hunt to feed their adult sons. Tropical birds incubate their friends' eggs. Spider moms let their hatchlings eat them alive. Around the world, animals from the exotic to the familiar go to astonishing lengths to keep their young alive. Their biology, brains and behaviors show us what we have in common with other creatures, as well as what's unique about Homo sapiens.
With warmth, humor, and occasional run-ins with bodily fluids, science journalist Elizabeth Preston leads a highly accessible tour of cutting-edge research into how and why we and other animals care for young. She discovers that humans evolved to raise our kids in cooperative groups, and that the tools we've inherited for caretaking aren't only for moms or dads—they're the basis for our human society.
批評家のレビュー
“Elizabeth Preston is an engaging, brilliant, often hilarious guide to the WTF world of non-human parenting. This book is astonishing—for the breadth of Preston's research and the eye-opening, jaw-dropping things it uncovers: dads who incubate their young in their throats and burp them out. Babies that survive by peeling and eating their mother's skin. Gender-changing fish! Lactating male bats! The message is clear: there is no one way to be a parent. A must read for mothers (and fathers) and everyone who has one.”
—Mary Roach, the New York Times bestselling author of Replaceable You
“Leave your anthropocentric illusions behind and join science writer Elizabeth Preston in her disarming practice of identifying with other parents, whether fish, fowl, insect or mammal. In return, you will be mightily entertained, and also likely to come away sharing Preston’s conviction that acts of caring by fathers, mothers, aunts, uncles, grandparents and caretakers of every ilk laid the groundwork for the evolution of our own peculiarly social and cooperative species, Homo sapiens.”
—Sarah Blaffer Hrdy, author of Mother Nature and Father Time
