One of the best books on Self Improvement and Management ever
published. Animals have been taking care of business much longer
than humans and they do it with an instinct few humans possess.
Yes, we can learn a lot from the animal kingdom and everyone
should read this book. Having been an avid animal behavior student
for many years the author has observed their lessons and been
awed by them.
For example young clown fish brush themselves against the tentacles
of sea anemones to inoculate themselves and thus get immune
to the poison. In time, they are able to dive into the tentacles
and live there in safety. Clown fish have instinctively understood
the effectiveness of vaccination for thousands of years before
humans discovered it. This is an upbeat and fun book to read
that draws analogies from animal behavior and transposes them
to human society. The book will help people learn lessons that
they might not learn from a didactic or abstractive book. It
illustrates with stories about animal behavior how everyone
can learn and improve, not only their businesses, but also their
lives.
Perhaps this book will show that the animal instincts we used
to survive in the age of dinosaurs are just as valuable today
in our 21st century high tech jungle - albeit a slightly different
jungle. Corporations and individuals still face the same primeval
battles of supremacy - of predator and prey - in the workplace
today. This book will be indispensable to their survival and
prosperity.
