Nearly Human: The Gorilla's Guide to Good Living

� Andrew Grant, former managing director of the London Zoo, draws on research, interviews and experience to illuminate hundreds of fascinating details on the wild mountain gorilla, one of our closest relatives. Heavily illustrated with witty graphic-novel styled illustrations, Nearly Human captures the nearly-human behaviors of the wild gorilla in a fun and engaging manner. And, by looking closely at the wonders of the gorilla, Grant's work suggests taking a closer look at ourselves and why they need to be saved. Most enjoyable, amusing, and accurate.� -- George Schaller, naturalist, author, conservationist Grant brings a wealth of knowledge and experience to a unique view of gorillas and humans around them... -- Douglas Myers, CEO, Zoological Society of San Diego. Fact-filled and as playful and direct as its gorilla subject. -- Penny Patterson, teacher of Koko the gorilla and President of The Gorilla Foundation
