Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This book opens a series that confronts a truth we've worked hard to ignore: humanity is animality. We've turned our backs on our nature, constructing artificial worlds where we never quite belong. Social media has only deepened the illusion, giving us endless noise and distraction while the unease beneath still gnaws. We pile up possessions, comforts, and digital escapes, trying to quiet instincts that will not be silenced.Animal training makes the contradiction plain. The author examines trainers as the animal species we are: convinced we can read another species' mind, yet essentially blind to the instincts and drives that shape our own. It is this misplaced certainty, pretending to know everything about others while knowing so little about ourselves, that the book lays bare.Drawn from years of teaching animal trainers, it offers a provocative ethological and anthrozoological look at humans as instinct-bound beings adrift in a world we've reshaped beyond recognition. Complete with a free resource list, references, and recommended reading, it challenges anyone who works with animals, from pet owners to professionals, to see both species in a new light.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This closing volume of the series is also its most personal, written largely in the first person and drawn from memory. It opens with how a life in this work began out of necessity, and follows the long road through self-taught reading, academic studies in ethology and anthrozoology, and repeated collisions with an elitist field that guards its own territory more carefully than it serves the individuals in its care. From there the book turns to the applied ground of interspecies communication, the disciplines underlying the author's practical work and his mentoring, from applied ethology and the organization of behavior to the evolutionary roots of meaning between species, the often neglected fundamentals of signal precision, and behavior modification seen through learning theory and species-typical behavior at once. A final section gathers essays written over years of practice, several of which were once censored by social media or left unpublished.With a free resource list, references, and reading suggestions, this book offers a demanding and necessary perspective for anyone who works alongside other species, from dog owners to experienced practitioners, whatever the species in question.…
