During a dry spell of new non fiction

Alive Day - Tom Sullivan
A blind man and his dog. Does the dog understand that his friend is blind? What about blind animals? Atleast for rats, rabbits and dogs there doesnt seem to be much future if they are blind in both eyes. Their behaviour has been reported in popular science monthly Nov 1902 - Apr 1903
(Science gleanings in Animal Life - John Gibson)
Blind fish in mammoth caves. Flat fish. Is there really a cap on snakes venom production?
Proceedings of the society for Experimental zoology and medicine is a very easy to read science book.
