Alex & Me

Alex & Me is the remarkable true story of an extraordinary relationship between psychologist Irene M. Pepperberg and Alex, an African Grey parrot who proved scientists and accepted wisdom wrong by demonstrating an astonishing ability to communicate and understand complex ideas.

A New York Times bestseller and selected as one of the paper's Top Ten Books of the Year, Alex & Me is much more than the story of an incredible scientific breakthrough.

It's a poignant love story and an affectionate remembrance of Pepperberg's irascible, unforgettable, and always surprising best friend.
