This is the first book that compiles and synthesizes the recently emerging primary research literature on dog behavior, evolution, and cognition. I recommend it to anyone interested in the behavior of dogs and some of their wild relatives. Every time I pick it up, I am impressed by the breadth and care with which Dr. Miklosi addresses numerous diverse topics.

A comprehensive update of the first monograph on dog behavior, evolution, and cognition.

This book presents a new ecological approach to understanding dog behavior and demonstrates how dogs can be the subject of rigorous and productive scientific studies without the need to confine them to a laboratory.
