About the Book

What is it like to be a dog? A bat? Or a dolphin? To find out, neuroscientist Gregory Berns and his team began with a radical step: they taught dogs to go into an MRI scanner--completely awake. They discovered what makes dogs individuals with varying capacities for self-control, different value systems, and a complex understanding of human speech. And dogs were just the beginning. In What It's Like to Be a Dog, Berns explores the fascinating inner lives of wild animals from dolphins and sea lions to the extinct Tasmanian tiger. Much as Silent Spring transformed how we thought about the environment, so What It's Like to Be a Dog will fundamentally reshape how we think about--and treat--animals. Groundbreaking and deeply humane, it is essential listening for animal lovers of all stripes.

About the Author :
Gregory Berns is a distinguished professor of neuroeconomics at Emory University, where he directs the Center for Neuropolicy and Facility for Education and Research in Neuroscience. He is the author of several books, including the New York Times bestseller How Dogs Love Us. He lives in Atlanta. Born in Cincinnati, Ohio, award-winning narrator Joe Hempel, a total eighties' kid, had a fascination with an eclectic array of shows that would later shape his performances in the audiobook world. For over a decade Joe honed his acting skills as a referee in WWE's Developmental professional wresting schools. Combined with his animated personality and a love for reading, becoming an audiobook narrator was a natural step. Best known for his captivating, rich narrations and uncanny ability for pulling listeners into an immersive experience, Joe has entertained listeners with over 600 audiobooks, carving a path to being the most in-demand narrator in the horror genre. He also frequently narrates mystery, thriller, science fiction, fantasy, romance, and nonfiction titles. Joe Hempel is a 2018 Independent Audiobook Award winner for best horror, a 2021 Independent Audiobook Award winner for best horror as a publisher, and a 2022 SOVAS award winner for best voice-over in an anthology for the thriller Hotel California. Joe also runs the award-winning extreme horror audiobook company Fright Night Audio.
