Animals Make Us Human: Creating the Best Life for Animals の感想

I believe nobody understands so much about animals as Dr. Temple Grandin. I have never seen any informative instruction manuals on how to treat pets before. Particularly, I was so shocked when I encountered her explanation about horses because I could associate autism with the characteristics of horses. According to Dr. Grandin, horses are extremely hypersensitive to something unfamiliar, which is likely to lead to fear, rage and trauma. Since I know people with autism/Asperger’s tend to panic when unfamiliar things happen to them, I gradually recognize why horses are very similar to people with autism/Asperger’s. And Dr. Grandin indicated that crucial point loud and clear.

Overall, Temple couldn’t have written any books on animals if she were an NT. She can put herself in animals’ shoes because she has been through various similar things to animals, I guess. Therefore I would like to recommend you read Animals Make Us Human if you think about dealing with animals.
