Book Reviews of Dolphins and Their Power to Heal
Book Review: I loved all the information in this book and the references,
Summary: 5 Stars
I read this book before my swim with the wild dolphins in the Bahamas and it gave me an even greater appreciation for what I was doing and enjoying. The chapter on the myths and evolution was so enlightening. I was horrified to read of the awful things we still do to our world and the creatures in it. The book inspired me to connect more with my world. The references, research project info and bibliography were outstanding. I have passed this book on to others whose work is to research and direct swim trips with dolphins.
Summary of Dolphins and Their Power to Heal
Since ancient times dolphins have been known to uplift and inspire human beings through empathetic interaction. Cochrane and Callen review the myths, legends, and history of dolphins as well as current research, showing how close contact with these graceful mammals can trigger our inherent healing powers. In a rich and detailed study of dolphins, the authors explore the animals' life cycle, behavioral patterns, and methods of communication. They also give careful consideration to the well-being of the dolphins themselves, emphasizing that human/dolphin encounters should, whenever possible, occur in the animals' natural habitat and on their own terms.
The authors describe recent case studies confirming that such contact can enhance the learning abilities of the mentally handicapped, bring relief to the emotionally disturbed, and encourage recovery from life-threatening illness.
Thirty-two color photographs capture the exhilaration of swimming and interacting with dolphins.
