This is a collection of personal essays by Margaret Thompson that
offers a straightforward study of the complex relationship between
human beings and the natural world. The essays look at a wide range
of beings - from spiders to peacocks - and cover issues such as our
irrational phobias, our fascination with zoos, and the myths and
stories we have created around the other occupants of this earth.
And they observe the joy animals bring to us as our pets,
caregivers and companions, and our altruistic relationship with
them to provide essentials throughout their lifetimes. With lively
anecdotes and engaging portraits of the animals who have enriched
Margaret's life, these entertaining and personal essays serve a
double purpose: as a reminder of our place in the natural order and
our intricate connections with animals; and as a warning about how
much we stand to lose by ignoring our responsibilities for all life
on earth. Meant to inspire and motivate, "Adrift on the Ark" is an
enchanting reflection on the beneficial relationship between humans
and other animals.
