"Konrad Lorenz nos conduce hasta los orígenes del «encuentro» entre el hombre y el perro, cuando se estableció la relación entre nuestros antepasados con el chacal y el lobo. Estos inicios han influido en todas las formas complejas de comunicación, obediencia, ocio, fidelidad y neurosis que han ido configurando la historia entre amo y perro". (Descripción editorial). Konrad Lorenz nos conduce hasta los orígenes del «encuentro» entre el hombre y el perro, cuando se estableció la relación entre nuestros antepasados con el chacal y el lobo. Estos inicios han influido en todas las formas complejas de comunicación, obediencia, ocio, fidelidad y neurosis que han ido configurando la historia entre amo y perro. Recurriendo a casos vividos por él mismo, Lorenz ilumina todo el arco de la «canidad» con la gracia de un verdadero narrador, con la precisión y la sutileza de un científico pionero en la investigación de estos temas, y con la fértil inteligencia de un pensador que supo arrojar nueva luz sobre los problemas humanos. Nobel Prize winner Konrad Lorenz writes about his work with dogs, including his theory on their evolution and their relationship with humans. His writing is detailed based upon his closely notated experiences with his own canine friends. This is a different book to read when wanting to learn more about the canine race, as it doesn't really fall under the basic training books or cutesy doggy books. I found it very interesting because he provides ideas that did indeed work with my down-home laid-back mellow American dogs. His dogs come off as rather aristocratic, which I enjoyed, as I still have doubts about the career ambitions of my canines. Still, the work veers more toward science than easy reading, and at times, I couldn't get into his whole Germanic/Austrian Third Reich outlook. That is perhaps more of a reflection on me as a reader, but nevertheless, my honest opinion. Still, I would suggest it as an addition to any library for any guardian of dogs.

In this wonderful book, the famous scientist and best-selling author, Konrad Lorenz, 'the man who talked with animals', enlightens and entertains us with his illustrated account of the unique relationship between humans and their pets. Displaying Lorenz's customary humanity and expert knowledge of animals, Man Meets Dog is also a deeply personal and entertaining account of his relationships with his own four-legged friends. With charming sketches on almost every page, Man Meets Dog offers a delightful insight into animal and human thinking and feeling. An essential companion for all lovers of dogs (and cats!).
