Beautiful Minds

- The Parallel Lives of Great Apes and Dolphins

About Beautiful Minds

This book explains how and why apes and dolphins are so distantly related yet so cognitively alike and what this teaches us about another large-brained mammal: Homo sapiens. Noting that apes and dolphins have had no common ancestor in nearly 100 million years, the authors describe the parallel evolution that gave rise to their intelligence.
