On Animals COLOR:Book and the stories we tell

and the stories we tell ourselves to survive

No problem

and has a fluid viscosity for easy application

and the red glow of a toaster's hot filaments (the glow that launched quantum mechanics) to the chemistry of food aroma

On Animals COLOR:Book and the stories we tellHow we interact with animals has preoccupied philosophers, poets, and naturalists for ages,'' writes Susan Orlean. Since the age of six, when Orlean wrote and illustrated a book called Herbert the Near Sighted Pigeon, she's been drawn to stories about how we live with animals, and how they abide by us. Now, in On Animals, she examines animal human relationships through the compelling tales she has written over the course of her celebrated career.
