The Genius of Dogs : Discovering the Unique Intelligence of Man's Best Friend

Is your dog purposefully disobeying you? Probably, and usually behind your back. Why shouldn't you act like "top dog" to maintain control? Youʼre better off displaying your friendliness. Starting with a landmark discovery in 1995 by evolutionary anthropologist Brian Hare, a wunderkind who now leads the field, scientists have learned how dogs think.

Then, Hare proved that his familyʼs dog was not only cleverer than any fox but also cleverer than any chimp. Now, Hare and science writer Vanessa Woods share all of the secrets of dogsʼ uniquely evolved intelligence, how to understand your dogʼs world, and how exactly your dog is a genius.
