In Finding Our Humanity, Leif Cocks shares an uncommon journey into what the great apes, our tribal past and a more philosophical approach to life can teach us about our humanity. With insights on the evolution of the ape-human mind and our shared cultural histories, he presents an alternative perspective and deeper understanding of what it means to be truly human. Combining science, philosophy and real-life stories the book offers a compelling case for a shift in how we see, think and act in the world - a shift which could change the future for not just ourselves, but for all living beings. Fascinating and enlightening, Finding Our Humanity points to the practical ways we, as individuals and collectively, can transcend our biological and cultural histories to create a higher understanding, happiness and connection with nature. Perhaps just as importantly, it offers us an open invitation to expand the boundaries of our current understanding of what humanity is and may just change the way you see, think and act in the world forever.
