Descrizione libro Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. photos, very fine color (illustratore). 245 pages. Inscription on ffep. Minor shelf wear.In 1975, dol phins interrupted their journey up the east coast of northern New Zealand to frolic in the sea with a boatload of humans. They pla yed games, acting with good humor and ease. Was it more than just a game? Were the dolphins willing to meet humans? Did they want to communicate? Further encounters with dolphins made Wade and Ja n Doak feel they were on the brink of a revelation. There were so many ideas to try in the search for a two-way dialogue. Music? Mimicry? And was it proper to intrude on their territory, or did one wait for them to offer an invitation? Wade and Jan sold thei r house and bought a Polynesian catamaran which they transformed into a specially rigged research vessel. Dolphin, Dolphin tells how the dolphins responded to these and other experiments. Journa l entries capture the excitement and wonder of encounters which g radually developed into a relationship. Project Interlock came i nto being. Dolphins had deliberately aided mariners in distress, and set up enduring friendships with chosen people. Swimmers, div ers, surfers and yachtsmen reported meetings with friendly and st rangely communicative dolphins. Britain and South Africa, Spain, the Bahamas and Australia, Hawaii and the two Americas brought fa scinating anecdotes. The pathway to friendship with dolphins ex tends to physical contact and play with the great whales. The fut ure possibilities that Wade Doak outlines are fascinating. The gr eat brain capacity of the cetaceans can be used in ways that we c annot fully comprehend. These possiblities come excitingly togeth er when Doak, attending the 1980 conference on cetacean intellige nce in Washington, D.C., reviews modern research in this field an d then, in the coastal waters of Hawaii, discovers new horizons f or human/cetacean exploration.
