Synopsis
Meg Daley Olmert examines the science behind people's often-profound connections with their pets and other creatures, by demonstrating that much of our psychological behavior has its roots in our animal ancestry. Olmert reveals various unseen channels of biological communication that exist between animals and humans, particularly the release of a hormone called oxycontin, which nurtures fulfillment and well-being, and is scientifically proven to be released in increased amounts when we engage with animals and the natural world. While every pet owner knows how strong the emotional bond between people and animals can be, Olmert's intriguing and engaging study clearly shows that the connection is more than spiritual--it is biological.
