“The connections we share with the rest of life on our planet are a source of beauty and, in Natterson-Horowitz and Bowers’ luminous new account, the inspiration for an emerging and powerful approach to human health.”
—Neil Shubin, paleontologist and author of Your Inner Fish
Zoobiquity advances a species-spanning approach to health which turns to the natural world as a source of insights and inspiration.
The book offers two approaches to understanding and addressing high impact human physical and psychiatric disorders. First, because human vulnerability to illness is rooted in our animal and evolutionary past, to fully understand why we get sick we must also learn why other animals do, too. Second, the natural world contains countless adaptations with potential relevance to human health.
Zoobiquity advances an approach to accelerate biomedical innovation through a bio-inspired approach.
