Discover the fascinating world of anthropomorphism with Justin Gregg’s “Humanish: How Anthropomorphism Makes Us Smart, Weird and Delusional.” Do you see personalities in your pets or emotions in inanimate objects? This book dives into our innate tendency to project human traits onto animals, nature, and even technology. Explore the surprising ways this bias shapes our perception, from our interactions with beloved pets to our anxieties about AI. Gregg, a researcher at the Dolphin Communication Project, takes you on a humorous and insightful journey through this fundamental aspect of human cognition. Uncover why we imagine dolphins as midwives and why industries thrive on our emotional connections to animals. “Humanish” is an eye-opening exploration of a universal human trait and what it reveals about our own minds.
