Animal Voices: Telepathic Communication in the Web of Life. Paperback, 288 pages; Inner Traditions International Ltd., July 2002; ISBN: 1-8791-8191-6.

Dawn Brunke, editor of Alaska Wellness magazine, asks: "What do animals most want humans to know? If we step beyond our preconceived ideas and open to the natural world, meeting animals as sentient beings with thoughts, emotions, and specific reasons for being on the planet, what will we find?"

The book has been called "a compelling journey reminding us that the wisdom of the animal kingdom offers a window to our own inner mysteries."
