海洋的声音：海豚世界的探索之旅
作者苏珊·凯西系《纽约时报》畅销书作家。在夏威夷群岛毛伊岛海岸游泳时，她被一群海豚团团围住。这样一次奇妙的经历让苏珊萌发了探索海豚世界的想法。于是，历经整整两年，苏珊走遍世界各地，去探索这种神奇生物的特性以及它们与人类的复杂关系。
苏珊重新回顾了现代海豚学先驱强尼·利利的事业，探访了信仰海豚是精神启迪关键的夏威夷村落，并特意前往将海豚称之为“世界上最忠诚的动物”的爱尔兰，咨询了世界顶级的舰艇专家，他们的很多发明创意都是来自于海豚。
然而，人类与海豚的关系也有阴暗的一面，这就是残忍的海豚捕杀业。苏珊深入调查，最后来到了作为海豚捕杀业中心的所罗门岛和因为奥斯卡获奖纪录片《小峡谷》一炮而红的日本小镇太地町，详细记录了人类对海豚的屠杀和交易。
该书将其亲身经历与细致严谨的科学研究用散文般清新细腻的笔触传递给读者，成就了读者对神奇海豚世界的探索之旅。

From Susan Casey, the New York Times bestselling author of The Wave and The Devil's Teeth, a breathtaking journey through the extraordinary world of dolphins.
A New York Times Bestseller
Inspired by a profound experience swimming with wild dolphins off the coast of Maui, Susan Casey set out on a quest to learn everything she could about these creatures. Her journey takes her from a community in Hawaii known as “Dolphinville,” where the animals are seen as the key to spiritual enlightenment, to the dark side of the human-cetacean relationship at marine parks and dolphin-hunting grounds in Japan and the Solomon Islands, to the island of Crete, where the Minoan civilization lived in harmony with dolphins, providing a millennia-old example of a more enlightened coexistence with the natural world.
Along the way, Casey recounts the history of dolphin research and introduces us to the leading marine scientists and activists who have made it their life’s work to increase humans’ understanding and appreciation of the wonder of dolphins—the other intelligent life on the planet.
