Description

Lilly On Dolphins by John C. Lilly is a fascinating compilation that brings together three of Lilly’s key works—Man and Dolphin, The Dolphin in History, and The Mind of the Dolphin—alongside two scientific papers on dolphin communication and cognitive science. This unique collection explores the complex intelligence, behaviour, and history of dolphins, presenting both scientific research and philosophical reflections on these remarkable marine mammals.

Lilly, a pioneering neuroscientist and dolphin researcher, delves into the possibilities of interspecies communication and even considers the potential for contact with extraterrestrial intelligence. The included scientific papers discuss innovative theories such as the reprogramming of dolphin sonic outputs, making this volume essential reading for those interested in marine biology, animal cognition, and the frontiers of communication science.

Lilly On Dolphins is ideal for readers fascinated by dolphins, animal behaviour, and the intriguing intersections of science, consciousness, and communication.
