Being a Dog: Following the Dog into a World of Smell-Alexandria Horowitz
From the #1 bestselling author of Inside of a Dog "an incredible journey into the olfactory world of man's best friend" ( O, The Oprah Magazine ), Alexandra Horowitz's follow-up to her New York Times bestseller explains how dogs experience the world through their most spectacular organthe nose. In her "fascinating book...Horowitz combines the expertise of a scientist with an easy, lively writing style" ( The New York Times Book Review ) as she imagines what it is like to be a dog. Guided by her own dogs, Finnegan and Upton, Horowitz sets off on a quest through the cutting-edge science behind the olfactory abilities of the dog. In addition to speaking to cognitive researchers and smell experts, Horowitz visits detection-dog trainers and training centers; she meets researchers working with dogs to detect cancerous cells and anticipate epileptic seizure or diabetic shock; and she even attempts to smell-train her own nose. As we come to understand how rich, complex, and exciting the world around us is to the canine nose, Horowitz changes our perspective on dogs forever.
