Neuroscientist Gregory Burns built a mock MRI scanner in his living room and taught his dog not to be afraid of the machine. This is how the Dog Project was born, aimed at studying the activity of the dog's brain in a conscious state. How do our four-legged friends react to food and praise? Do they miss their humans when they don't see them? What do they feel when they follow their owner's commands? In this book, Burns presents the findings of his experiments, talks about dog training, and shares funny stories from his interactions with his furry subjects. But this was not enough to satisfy Burns' scientific curiosity. The MRI scanner also contained the brains of a dolphin, a sea lion, and even a long-extinct marsupial wolf. The scientist is convinced that studying the workings of the animal brain will allow us to better understand them. It is likely that they have the same emotions and feelings as humans, but they cannot express them in the way we are used to.
