Charles Foster wished to know what it was prefer to be a beast: a badger, an otter, a deer, a fox, a swift. What it was actually like. And thru figuring out what it was like he wished to get down and grapple with the beast in us all.
So he tried it out; he lived life as a badger for six weeks, sleeping in a dust gap and consuming earthworms, he got here nose to nose with shrimps as he lived like an otter and he spent hours curled up in a again backyard in East London and rooting in bins like an city fox.
A passionate naturalist, Foster realises that each creature creates a special world in its mind and lives in that world. As people, we share sensory outputs, lights, smells and sound, however attempting to discover what it’s truly prefer to dwell in one other of those worlds, belonging to a different species, is a captivating and distinctive neuro-scientific problem. For Foster it is usually a literary problem. what science can inform us about what occurs in a fox’s or badger’s mind when it picks up a scent, he then makes use of this to think about their world for us, to jot down it via their eyes or relatively via the eyes of Charles the beast.
An intimate have a look at the lifetime of animals, neuroscience, psychology, nature writing, memoir and extra, it’s a journey of extraordinary thrills and surprises, containing great moments of humour and pleasure, but in addition offering vital classes for all of us who share life on this valuable planet.
