Dinosaurs suffered from brain cancer, arthritis, and gout. Koalas catch Chlamydia. Gorillas experience clinical depression. Stallions self-harm in a way that correlates to “cutting” for human patients. Animals and humans get the same diseases, yet physicians and veterinarians rarely talk. Drawing on the latest in medical and veterinary science, as well as evolutionary and molecular biology, Barbara Natterson-Horowitz proposes an interdisciplinary, comparative approach to physical and behavioral health for doctors treating patients of all species, and shows us how animal medicine might help us all feel better.
