By Barbara Held, PhD, Barry N. Wish Professor of Psychology and Social Studies Emerita,
and David Bellows, PhD
Gus is a heartwarming, funny love story about how a psychologist who initially rejected the 1.4-ounce pet parakeet his wife insisted on adopting ultimately wanted Gus to live beyond his all-too-brief five years. How Gus’s uncanny words of wisdom—though sometimes making the psychologist look bad to others—helped his therapy patients, himself, and his wife in remarkable ways.
"A touching and fascinating memoir of a little bird with a big personality."
