@article{Cygan_2021, title={Non-human emotions}, url={https://www.zfn.edu.pl/index.php/zfn/article/view/524}, abstractNote={<p>This article is a review of Frans de Waal's book <em>Mama's Lust Hugs. Animal Emotions and what They Tell Us about Ourselves</em>, which was released in Polnad in 2019. The book deals with the problem of animal emotionality. One of the conclusions reached by the author and which was emphasized in the review is the thesis that there is no such thing as unique human emotions that animals would not have. Emotions are universal; they are shared both by humans and animals. The review noted that although the book is interesting, it is not new in terms of content, because it deals with issues that de Waal wrote about many times in his earlier publications. On the other hand, thanks to the collection and inclusion in one book of the issues related to emotionality in animals, the publication can be a good starting point for reflection not only on animals (their emotionality and rights), but also on humans and their place in the world. It puts the reader in facing the question of human nature. For this reason, what has been tried to show in the review, Frans de Waal's book is a good example of how scientific issues lead to philosophical reflections.</p>}, number={71}, journal={Philosophical Problems in Science (Zagadnienia Filozoficzne w Nauce)}, author={Cygan, Milena Bogumiła}, year={2021}, month={Dec.}, pages={225–236} }
