Informative, surprising and hilarious, New Scientist tackles questions about the animal kingdom from readers in the magazine's popular 'Last Word' column. This book brings together the best of the bunch:

• Will we ever speak dolphin?
• Do geese always fly in a V formation?
• And, at long last, a scientific verdict on the ultimate question: cats or dogs?
