The Genius of Dogs by Brian Hare

The scientist who started the revolution in our understanding of dog intelligence offers the definitive book on the interior lives of our cleverest animal friends.

 ‘You would be hard-pressed to find a more cheerful, optimistic and warm-hearted readDifficult, too, to find another book about dogs touching not only on Darwin and Skinner, but also on Stalin. Even Justin Bieber gets a mention…’ 

* Spectator *

‘Every dog-lover will enjoy this book; and those who, strangely, do not love dogs might come to see them in a new and more favourable light.’

* Mail on Sunday *
