What Makes Us Special? Humans as Animals

Posted on 13 November 2021

In this fourth of four bonus episodes on animals and Islamic philosophy, Peter asks what difference it would make if humans are unique among animals in being rational.

These episodes draw on work done with the support of the project “Animals in the Philosophy of the Islamic World”, which has received funding from the European Research Council (ERC), under the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme (grant agreement No. 786762).
