Smart new book takes an axe to the myth of human exceptionalism

Christine Webb's new book, The Arrogant Ape, challenges the notion of human exceptionalism, arguing against the unjustifiable sense of superiority humans hold over other species. The book presents evidence that undermines the belief in human superiority in the living world, as reviewed by Elle Hunt in New Scientist. Webb's work is positioned to provoke thought and discussion about humanity's place in the natural order and the implications of our perceived dominance.
