Paperback. Condición: New. How well do we really know dogs? People may enjoy thinking about them as "man's best friend," but what actually drives the things they do? What is going on in their fur-covered heads as they look at us with their big, expressive eyes? Raymond Coppinger and Mark Feinstein know something about these questions, and with How Dogs Work, they're ready to share; this is their guide to understanding your dog and its behavior. Approaching dogs as a biological species rather than just as pets, Coppinger and Feinstein accessibly synthesize decades of research and field experiments to explain the evolutionary foundations underlying dog behaviors. They examine the central importance of the shape of dogs: how their physical body (including the genes and the brain) affects behavior, how shape interacts with the environment as animals grow, and how all of this has developed over time. Shape, they tell us, is what makes a champion sled dog or a Border collie that can successfully herd sheep. Other chapters in How Dogs Work explore such mysteries as why dogs play; whether dogs have minds, and if so what kinds of things they might know; why dogs bark; how dogs feed and forage; and the influence of the early relationship between mother and pup. Going far beyond the cozy lap dog, Coppinger and Feinstein are equally fascinated by what we can learn from the adaptations of dogs, wolves, coyotes, jackals, dingoes, and even pumas in the wild, as well as the behavior of working animals like guarding and herding dogs. We cherish dogs as family members and deeply value our lengthy companionship with them. But, isn't it time we knew more about who Fido and Trixie really are? How Dogs Work will provide some keys to unlocking the origins of many of our dogs' most common, most puzzling, and most endearing behaviors.…

Condición: New. Idioma/Language: Español. En ocasiones es necesario exponerse a planteamientos que nos sacan de nuestra área de confort y nos hacen cuestionarnos ideas que dábamos por sentadas. Este libro nos invita a realizar una investigación activa y crítica sobre nuestros perros. Nos permitirá familiarizarnos con conceptos como: mecanismos genéticos intrínsecos, acomodación, conductas emergentes? . . «Este libro, Cómo funcionan los perros. Forma, función y conductas emergentes, es un verdadero hito en lo que se refiere a la psicología comparada y a la etología, y representa un digno sucesor de Konrad Lorenz, uno de los principales fundadores de la etología. Sus autores, los prestigiosos profesores y científicos, investigadores de la conducta canina, Coppinger y Feinstein, nos presentan gran parte de los muchos y nuevos descubrimientos en biología y etología que se han realizado sobre perros, lobos y sus parientes cercanos. Además, se centran en determinadas razas, no en el «perro» genérico. Mantienen a lo largo del libro un enfoqueetológico y, al igual que Konrad Lorenz, presentan opiniones provocadoras, visiones propias, no la visión general, sobre muchos aspectos de la conducta del perro. De este modo, no solo los dueños de perros y los aficionados aprenderán mucho de esta obra sobre perros y ciencia en general, sino también los profesionales del mundo del perro. Y los científicos caninos verán amenazadas algunas de sus creencias más afianzadas. » Gordon Burghardt, investigador del comportamiento animal y del juego.
