If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal: What Animal Intelligence Reveals About Human Stupidity 

byJustin Gregg

If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal overturns everything we thought we knew about human intelligence, and asks the question: would humans be better off as narwhals? The research behind If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal draws together scientific research, fieldwork, and carefully chosen case studies to show how the central story changed over time. The result links what animal intelligence reveals about human stupidity with debates in humor and nature, showing where public institutions and private experience meet. If Nietzsche Were a Narwhal emphasizes the specific circumstances that made this story possible and the consequences that followed.
