This fascination is driven by the ancient chemical forces that first drew humans and animals together. MADE FOR EACH OTHER is the first book to explain how this chemistry of attraction and attachment flows through—and between—all mammals to create the profound emotional bonds humans and animals still feel today. Drawing on recent discoveries from neuroscience, evolutionary biology, behavioral psychology, archeology, as well as her own investigations, Meg Daley Olmert, of Baltimore, Maryland will explain in this exclusive PawsWay lecture why the bonding chemistry humans and animals trigger in each other also has a profound effect on our mental and physical well being. This lively and original seminar will ask what happens when this bond is severed? If thousands of years of caring for animals infused us with a biology that shaped our hearts and minds, do we dare turn our back on it? Olmert will make a compelling and scientific case for what our heart has always known that we are and always will be Made For Each Other. “An original, exceptionally interesting book. I learned from it. Meg Olmert is an excellent writer, with an idea of original importance.” E.O. Wilson, author of The Diversity of Life. "A fascinating exploration into the foundations of the human-animal bond and our relationships with animals." Temple Grandin, author of Animals Make Us Human. "A fascinating, wide-ranging and easy read...makes a strong case that we need animals in our lives and that there are deep rooted reasons why this is so. New Scientist
