"Our
mistake in the past has been to assume that because
other forms of life perceive things differently
from us, they are necessarily inferior: they are
not. Pioneering scientific work is now opening
up the immense diversity of sensory worlds experienced
by other creatures: extraordinary worlds which
we may never be able to enter, but which we can
at least start to appreciate through our awareness
of animal 'supersenses.'"
