Title: Excellent book about the tension between the captive dolphin industry and releasing dolphins to the wild
Product review: This book provides a first-person perspective on what started as a noble attempt to obtain captive dolphins and rehabilitate them for release into the wild. Ric O'Barry has developed a credible methodology for teaching dolphins to be dolphins again. He participated in the Sugarloaf Dolphin Sanctuary, and the book gives some idea of how at least some humans kind of lost sight of the main purpose of SDS, leading to something of a disaster. Those who enjoy this book will likely also enjoy a fictional book about dolphins, Ocean Echoes: A Dolphin Tale, by Shaney Frey (Seastory Press, ISBN-13: 978-0982115114). Shaney Frey is mentioned briefly in O'Barry's book (in fact, she was the only witness for O'Barry's defense in a trial described in the book), and O'Barry wrote the forward for Shaney Frey's book.
