She loves sharing her passion for promulgating women in STEM careers and building community via social media, and he eschews all socialization, virtual or otherwise. She’s a public school science teacher with stars in her eyes, and he’s a pretentious, joyless double PhD turned world-famous bestselling fiction author. The truth is, they have nothing in common. Winnie considers them more like casual, distant acquaintances who find each other barely tolerable, especially when he's being condescending (which is all the time).

Heinrich has documented a level of intelligence and social sophistication rarely even dreamed to exist in birds. At the heart of this book are Heinrich’s love and respect for these complex and engaging creatures, and through his keen observation and analysis, students become their intimates, too. Heinrich involves us in his quest to get inside the mind of the raven. In considering the appeal of the raven, Bernd Heinrich suspects that a meeting of the minds might reside in that hunting trinity. The trinity of wolf, man, and raven in the hunt is an ancient one. As scavengers, ravens were associated with hunters they found in the north: wolves and later men. Ravens, like early humans, are scavengers on the kills of great carnivores. Throughout history there has existed an extraordinary relationship between humans and ravens. |
