Next of Kin: My Conversations with Chimpanzees by Stephen Tukel Mills, Roger Fouts
5.0

Chimpanzees speaking sign language, making gin and tonics, consoling humans about lost babies -- the list goes on and on. This shows you how much chimps, the rest of the great apes, and probably many other animals think and feel. Fouts' description of human "sequential" thinking versus chimps' (and animals in general) "simultaneous" thinking is a cool and meritorius idea.
