“The definitive dog book of our time by the researcher who started a revolution.” - Daniel Levitin, author of This is Your Brain on Music
“A masterful account of the way science is revealing just how smart dogs can be. Fascinating and highly readable.” - John Bradshaw, Foundation Director of the Anthrozoology Institute, University of Bristol, and author of In Defence of Dogs
“Many authors have tried to capture anecdotally the emotional bond between humans and dogs. Here at last is a book that digs deep into cognitive science to unravel the mysteries of the canine brain. Thoroughly researched and written in the likeable voice of a brainy scientist sitting at your kitchen table, The Genius of Dogs is a fascinating look at what goes on between the ears of the animals we share our lives with. I found it entertaining, fast-moving, and filled with insights that gave me a new appreciation for the complex social intelligence of man's best friend.”
--John Grogan, author of Marley & Me“Based on Brian Hare's game-changing research, The Genius of Dogs brilliantly explains the canine mind and in doing so illuminates the natural history of all intelligence. This book will captivate anyone interested in dog, ape or human mentality.” - Richard Wrangham, Professor of Biological Anthropology, Harvard University, and author of Catching Fire
“This is the best book in existence, by far, for learning about the recent revolution in our understanding of the minds of dogs. And it's fun, too. ”
--Mike Tomasello, Co-Director, Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology“With the help of some wolves, Russian foxes, New Guinea singing dogs and a Labrador retriever named Oreo, Brian Hare tells us about his fascinating search for an understanding of how dogs think and communicate. This is a book that is well worth reading.” - Stanley Coren, Professor of Psychology, University of British Columbia, and author of How to Speak Dog
“ The Genius of Dogs is a fantastic book. It makes it very clear that there are different kinds of intelligence. All dog lovers should read this book.” --Temple Grandin, author of Animals in Translation
