Reviews

'Everyone who is interested in both human and animal behavior will love this book. Justin Gregg uses interesting stories to explain anthropomorphism.'―Temple Grandin, author of Animals in Translation 'Going beyond a delightful explanation of why we dress our dogs in cute costumes, this is an engaging and timely investigation of how we interact with technology, politics and religion through a unique narrativizing lens – demonstrating that what makes us human is what we see as human-ish.'―Adam Aleksic, author of Algospeak 'Humanish is at once a riveting read and a breath of fresh air. Justin Gregg opens our senses and our hearts to nature’s whims and to the other beings with whom we share our one and only planet. Identifying with them is a win-win for all.""―Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals
