We know so little about octopuses. They are one of the most intelligent beings on our planet and they are completely other. We have some inkling of a theory that they don’t need eyes to see and that they have a decentralized brain. We know they use tools. We know they have three hearts. We don’t know much beyond that.

This book takes you into an exploration of the wonderous other. What is it like to be an octopus? What is it like to be another human? Can we, unless we display deeply sincere empathy, even begin to guess?
