She was known for her distaste of sentimental indulgence and her idea that animals want to be challenged when working with humans. She was a professor at Yale University and operated a dog-training school for years in Westbrook, Connecticut. 2 A24 Thomas, Elizabeth Marshall Elizabeth Marshall Thomas 01 eng 336 00 336 03 03 0 03 PET004000 01 Employing a unique combination of psychology, philosophy, sociology, and dog training theory, Vicki Hearne recounts her experiences with Bandit, a dog deemed so dangerous that the state of Connecticut condemned him to death. Hearne rescued Bandit and was soon entrenched in a legal battle that extended well beyond his case as she fought to prove that no dog is inherently vicious. She quickly discovered the factors that contributed to Bandit's behavior and set about releasing the essentially "good dog" that lay within. 02 "Learned and brilliant and wonderful."Wall Street... 08 “Simply one of the most perceptive works about the social contracts between humans and animals ever written.” 08 “<em>Bandit</em> is not only a dog story, but also a deeply eccentric lesson in justice, linguistics, racism and teleology.” 04 03 72 01 http://www.skyhorsepublishing.com/resources/titles/60239100006540/images/60239100006540L.jpg 07 03 72 01 http://www.skyhorsepublishing.com/resources/titles/60239100006540/images/60239100006540S.jpg http://www.skyhorsepublishing.com/book/?GCOI=60239100006540 Skyhorse Publishing 01 Skyhorse Publishing 04 20070817 02 AG AI AN AR AS AU AW BB BM BO BR BS BZ CL CN CO CR CU DM DO EC FK GD GF GP GT GU GY HK HN HT ID JM JP KH KN TF KY LA LC MM MP MQ MS MX MY NI NZ PA PE PH PR PY SG SR SV TC TH TT TW US UY VC VE VG VI VN 03 ROW 01 0.8185404 in 02 0.549021 in 03 0898398 in 07 6300065 National Book Company, Inc. http://www.wwnorton.com 02 WORLD 02 Y 20 20070817 36 01 02 LONG 02 14.95 USD
