      ab: The main focus of the book "Animals, Ethics and Language: The Philosophy of Meaningful Communication in the Lives of Animals" is to explore the ethical implications of anthropomorphism in understanding animal behavior and communication. The author argues that anthropomorphic judgments can be justified in certain contexts, challenging the notion of human exceptionalism and emphasizing the continuity between human and non-human species. The text critiques the limitations of both mechanistic and phenomenological approaches to animal cognition, advocating for a nuanced understanding that recognizes the unique capabilities of different species while acknowledging their shared traits. The book is recommended for those interested in animal welfare and the philosophical discourse surrounding animal ethics.
