Languages : en
Pages : 265
Book Description
“Based on the latest findings in the field of canine cognition and behavior, this book is an invaluable resource.” —Hal Herzog, author of Some We Love, Some We Hate, Some We Eat: Why It's So Hard To Think Straight About Animals Every dog owner knows that along with the joy can come the stress and frustration of behavioral problems, which are expensive to diagnose and treat. Enter Kim Brophey, award-winning canine behavior consultant. Using cutting-edge research, Brophey has developed a groundbreaking system that allows owners to identify what their dog is struggling with, why, and how they can fix it. Brophey’s approach is unlike anything that has been published before and will give dog owners a new understanding of what motivates and affects their dog’s behavior. This innovative technique rethinks the way we categorize dogs, and distills information from over twenty scientific disciplines into four comprehensive elements: learning, environment, genetics, and self. With revolutionary tips for specific dog breeds, this book will change dog owners’ lives—and lead to happier human-canine relationships. “It’s refreshing to finally find a book that takes into consideration the many predispositions to behavior problems in dogs . . . teaches us to really see the dog in its entirety.” —Alexandre Rossi, author of A Dog at the Keyboard

tHE ceLL
Author: Dominique B. Hummel
Publisher: Europa Edizioni
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 844
Book Description
This is a truly groundbreaking book! The author intentionally gives us warnings from the start and breaks the boundaries, deliberately creating some kind of unorthodox and genuinely anarchistic yet truly brilliant type of writing. His dimension is made of grim realities and astonishing truths about the world we live in and the history of mankind. He nails with vigor the main points of the axis of everything good and evil resulting in exactly the same thing. The structure of the story is non-linear and chronology becomes just an abstract concept, obsolete and unnecessary, with no need to be followed. The parallelism and the multifaceted dimensions of the main characters lead the reader in a labyrinth of sensorial perception and physical discomfort where we end up feeling the ambience and tune in with the author’s mindset and discover different ways of perceiving past present and future all transposed in a twisted timeline of mnemonic events no longer relevant for the sake of our and his understanding of what is it all about? Life beyond belief! Dom Hummel is an anomaly among the family of authors. His early life is well documented in his novel tHE ceLL, albeit with a touch of surrealism attached to his persona. Needless to say nothing could have been more challenging than imagining what a life was going to bring after such a difficult childhood, but thanks to an everlasting sense of belonging to a few survivors of the last resort, Dom’s life took a sharp turn towards some inner search of self-determination. After many years of travel around the world, which could become a sequel to tHE ceLL, the author finally found refuge in the country of his choice, Australia has been his home since, and it is where he presently lives waiting for the inevitable... To resume it all, Dom’s an ordinary man who perhaps had an extraordinary life, but who’s to say any wiser than reading his early biography in tHE ceLL.

The Hazards of Good Breeding: A Novel
Author: Jessica Shattuck
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393347702
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 297
Book Description
The "pitch perfect" (Los Angeles Times) first novel by the New York Times bestselling author of The Women in the Castle. This "richly appointed and generously portrayed" (Kirkus Reviews) debut novel tells the story of a WASPy, old-Boston family coming face to face with an America much larger than the one it was born in. Told from five perspectives, the novel spans an explosive week in the life of the Dunlaps, culminating in a series of events that will change their way of life forever. Caroline Dunlap has written off the insular world of the Boston deb parties, golf club luaus, and WASP weddings that she grew up with. But when she reluctantly returns home after her college graduation, she finds that not everything is quite as predictable, or protected, as she had imagined. Her father, the eccentric, puritanical Jack Dunlap, is carrying on stoically after the breakup of his marriage, but he can't stop thinking of Rosita, the family housekeeper he fired almost six months ago. Caroline's little brother, Eliot, is working on a giant papier-mâché diorama of their town—or is he hatching a plan of larger proportions? As the real reason for Rosita's departure is revealed, the novel culminates in a series of events that assault the fragile, sheltered, and arguably obsolete world of the Dunlaps. Opening a window into a family's repressed desires and fears, The Hazards of Good Breeding is a startlingly perceptive comedy of manners that heralds a new writer of dazzling talent. A New York Times Notable Selection and a Boston Globe Book of the Year.
