Mondes animaux et monde humain, par J.V. Uexküll, Éditions Gonthier
€80.00
Published in 1965 in the Bibliothèque Médiations series and illustrated by Georges Kriszat, Animals and the Human World is one of the foundational works of modern ethology.
Through famous examples involving ticks, spiders and other living creatures, Jakob von Uexküll develops the revolutionary idea that every species inhabits its own perceptual world. Animals do not experience the same reality as humans but live within environments shaped by their senses and biological needs.
The volume culminates in the author's influential Theory of Meaning and includes indexes, a biography and a bibliography.

About the author
Jakob von Uexküll (1864-1944) was a pioneering biologist and philosopher whose concept of Umwelt transformed the study of animal behaviour and perception.
His ideas influenced generations of scientists and philosophers and continue to shape contemporary discussions on animal cognition.
Why this book is unusual
Combining biology, philosophy and psychology, the book challenges readers to imagine the world from the perspective of other living beings.
Why this book remains relevant today
Current debates about animal consciousness, ecology and the nature of perception make Uexküll's work more relevant than ever.
