Sinossi

What my conversations with chimpanzees have taught me about intelligence, compassion and being human. NEXT OF KIN is an enthralling voyage of discovery. Through the story of a young chimpanzee, Washoe, Roger Fouts shows us that humans and chimpanzees can achieve fluency in language. This moving account of Roger Fouts' personal and professional odyssey will challenge many of our assumptions about non-human primates. It is the humanity which Washoe has evoked that has driven him to write NEXT OF KIN and enabled us to share his unique story.
