Summary Why do we think that we can understand animal voices - such as the barking of a pet dog, the meows of the family cat? Why do we think of deep voices as dominant and high voices as submissive. This book presents a thorough exploration into how acoustically conveyed emotions are generated and processed in both animals and humans.
