本书基于 De Waal 对黑猩猩、倭黑猩猩及其他灵长类动物社交与情感生活的著名研究，全面而快速地展现了有关动物情感的新观点与新发现。De Waal 探讨了面部表情、动物的感知力与意识、Mama 的生与死、人类政治中的情感面，以及自由意志的幻觉。他区分了情绪（emotions）与感受（feelings），同时始终强调人类与其他物种之间的连续性。他还提出了一个颠覆性的主张：情绪就像器官一样，其他动物身上没有的器官，人类也一个都没有……

> 你能从她的动作中感受到那种恐慌和保护本能。这条评论让我想起了一本我读过的好书，叫《妈妈的最后拥抱：动物的情感以及它们对我们人类的启示》（Mama's Last Hug: Animal Emotions and What They Tell Us about Ourselves）。https://www.amazon.com/Mamas-Last-Hug-Animal-Emotions/dp/039...
> You could feel the panic and protective instinct in her movements. This comment reminded me of a great book I read called Mama's Last Hug: Animal Emotions and What They Tell Us about Ourselves. https://www.amazon.com/Mamas-Last-Hug-Animal-Emotions/dp/039...
除了《我们真的聪明到能理解动物有多聪明吗？》之外，弗朗斯·德瓦尔的另一本书《妈妈的最后拥抱：动物的情感以及它们对我们人类的启示》（Mama's Last Hug）也非常值得一读。
In addition to "Are We Smart Enough to Know How Smart Animals Are?" another book by Frans de Waal, "Mama's Last Hug: Animal Emotions and What They Tell Us about Ourselves" is also well worth the read.
他是一名灵长类动物学家，但几十年来一直是灵长类动物情感与智力研究的领军人物。这本书和他的续作《妈妈的最后拥抱》（Mama's Last Hug）毫不夸张地说，都是能改变人生的读物。
He's a primatologist, but has been a leader in studying emotion and intelligence in primates for decades. Both this book and his follow up, "Mama's Last Hug", are life-changing reads, literally.
我猜那些觉得这个有争议的人，肯定也会觉得弗朗斯·德瓦尔的《妈妈的最后拥抱》（Mama's Last Hug）极具争议。
I guess that the people considering this controversial, must consider the book "Mama's Last Hug" by Frans de Waal highly controversial.
……在讨论这个问题时，为什么特别值得针对 Neuralink？我也很乐意听听完全不对它们做实验的有力论据，因为在我看来这一点并不显而易见。我读过《妈妈的最后拥抱》[3]，也理解为什么我们可能不想做动物实验，但与此同时，电车难题就摆在那里。在我扭曲的想法里，我们或许应该多在人类身上做实验 [4]。如果在经过心理评估后有人自愿……
…Neuralink specifically is worth focusing on when discussing this issue? I'd also be happy to listen to good arguments for not experimenting on them at all, since it's not at all obvious to me. I've read Mama's last hug [3] and I understand why we may not want to, but at the same time, the trolley. In my twisted mind we should probably be experimenting on humans more [4]. If after psychological evaluation somebody gives…
