The author would have been better off simply making this an epoch-spanning novel. Instead, he blithely makes up his own fantasies of what the past was like, ignores any facts that disagree with his fantasies, and generally acts as though the truth, since it is currently scientifically unproven, can be bent to be whatever we wish it to be. If you like his arbitrary classifications (dogwolves, wolfdogs, socialized wolves, uhh, probably a few more I forgot), have fun with it. I'm not going to waste my time reading the rest. ( )
The result is a book that often reads more like a scholarly dissertation than a chatty missive from another "dog whisperer": It is not one of those popular dog books you might buy as a Christmas stocking stuffer for your cousin Susie who has three beagles.
Describes the early cooperative relationships between Ice Age humans and dogs as well as human society's later efforts to domesticate and control dog species through reproduction, revealing how dogs and humans impacted each other's evolution. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
