By: Eco, Umberto.

I was assigned this book as a class assignment, and I must thank my professor heartily for it. This book has quickly become a favorite, and I have encouraged several people to read it, including my husband. He read it in a week and agreed that it was an extraordinary book.

By: Schaffer, Michael

Packed with statistics and anecdotes of the dog industry c.2007/2008, this book breezes along with some entertaining tails (ha!) and at times some glib and/or flip comparisons and light analysis. While not especially insightful, this book is a quick and mostly light read for those looking for an overview.
