Recenzje

"Mark Alizart returns to the history of civilizations to restore to the dog its essential role. Far from being a mere companion of man, might the dog ultimately be his master?"France Culture"This plea to restore to the dog 'its ancient rights' echoes intelligently the present-day sensibility for the animal cause."L'Express"A clever treatise of canine philosophy."Le Monde"Delightful."The Spectator"Seminal . . . [Alizart] makes a compelling case on why dogs matter and articulates the important lessons they can impart to us."The Bark"charming . . . a book that should be read quickly and taken lightly as a dog takes life."Arkansas Democrat Gazette
