In Defense of Dolphins: The New Moral Frontier

"Have human been sharing the planet with other intelligent life for millions of years without realizing it? This book considers the answers and implications, and encourages humans to reconsider our treatment of the species with which we share the earth." "In Defense of Dolphins surveys the latest research on dolphin intelligence and social behavior, and argues that dolphins should be regarded - and treated as - as "nonhuman persons.""--Jacket.
