A lot of this book is very wise. I don't have a ton to nitpick, and they really would be nitpicks, about the theoretical and practical advice this book communicates. If you're trying to better understand how to communicate effectively with dogs (and maybe other people too), this book has a lot to offer. It's not a training manual, it definitely goes deeper, but it helps to explain why "dog training" is at its core a two-creature process, and the human has to work just as hard as the dog to get it right.
