Our wild calling: how connecting with animals can transform our lives--and save theirs

Introduction: A mystery

Beautiful acts: life-changing encounters with species not our own. In the family of animals ; The aching heart ; The mind-altering power of deep animal connection ; The octopus who stopped time

What the wild heart still knows: the art and science of communicating with other animals. Becoming the grasshopper ; Intimacy is all around us ; Earth's oldest language ; How to talk with birds ; Playing well with others

How we co-become: wonderdogs and werecats, therapy lizards and robot pets. More than human ; The animal lover ; Reptiles and ambivalence ; The boy who said horse ; The replacements: do we really need animals

The age of connectedness: creating a home for all creatures. New ways to live together ; The betweens ; Welcome to Symbiocene City ; The new Noahs

Wild souls: love, humility, and the principle of reciprocity. Dreaming animals ; The peaceable kingdom ; Learning and teaching in a school of animals ; The bear.
