Scott Taylor has devoted his life to research, education and experiential programmes on dolphins and whales. In this book he looks at the world from a dolphin's perspective and imagines what it would be like if our world were framed more from this perspective. Taylor is convinced that we should make our world friendlier to the propagation of other species, and that if we lose these intelligent creatures we lose our touch and connection to the natural world.
"Mr. Taylor is the key person in what I call the Cetacean Nation, a global network of like-minded individuals attempting to bridge the communication gap between humans and cetaceans. His work contributes a wider understanding of humanity, cetacea, and the environment on the edge of the twenty-first century. Scott's continued efforts as educator and catalyst bridge not only the interspecies communication barrier, but the barriers between people."
Dr. John C. Lilly, author of Man and Dolphin
Scott Taylor founded the Australia-based Cetacean Studies Institute, a research and educational organization that coordinates tours, trips to swim with dolphins, therapeutic opportunities, and storytelling adventures. The Institute is also involved in ending global whaling permanently. Scott lives near Byron Bay, Australia with his wife.
