What can dogs teach us about being human? Philosopher Mark Rowlands blends a lifetime of canine companionship with the wisdom of thinkers like Socrates and Hume, alongside cutting-edge animal psychology, to map the canine mind. While we struggle with the constant weight of anxiety and doubt, dogs move through the world with pure, focused joy. Exploring their capacity for love, morality, and consciousness, Rowlands suggests that when it comes to the meaning of life, our dogs might actually have it all figured out.
