More copies of this ISBN:The Emperor's Embrace: Reflections on Animal Families and Fatherhoodby Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson
Synopses & ReviewsBook News Annotation:Psychoanalyst Masson, a new father himself, showcases the
extraordinary behavior of outstanding fathers among animals. He tells
about wolves and why they make good fathers and dogs don't; how the
beaver encourages his young to cling to his tail as he navigates
through ponds; the sea horse, the only male animal that give birth to
its young; and the marmoset, the South American monkey who carries
his babies wherever he goes for the first two years of their lives.
He also examines natures's worst fathers (lions, langurs, bears, and
humans) and shows that when a father does care for his young,
fatherhood is a profound, all-encompassing experience.
