Thomas White is the author of a new book entitled 'In Defense of Dolphins: the New Moral Frontier'.  In this book he discusses the scientific evidence claiming that dolphins are, like humans, self-aware, intelligent beings with emotions, personalities and the capacity to control their actions.  Accordingly, White argues, dolphins should be regarded as 'nonhuman persons' and valued as individuals. White also concludes that, from an ethical perspective, the injury, deaths and captivity of dolphins at the hands of humans are wrong.

Join The Whale Museum in welcoming Thomas White for a special lecture and book signing on Friday October 17th at 7:00 pm.
