Synopsis

Este libro comienza narrando el ultimo encuentro entre Mama, una hembra de chimpance moribunda, y su cuidador. La escena, en la que Mama intenta sonreir mientras se abraza a la persona que se ocupo de ella durante anos fue filmada y ha emocionado a millones de personas a traves de la red. Al hilo de este episodio, De Waal habla del significado de las expresiones faciales, las emociones ocultas tras la politica humana o la ilusion de la libertad. Esta obra describe las multiples maneras en que los humanos y el resto de animales estamos intimamente conectados y nos muestra que los humanos no somos la unica especie capaz de amar, odiar, temer o avergonzarse.
