<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br><p>Fossil evidence shows that we began sharing our lives with dogs much earlier than had been previously thought. With this evidence, a new theory of human and dog coevolution has arisen, and with it a different way to look at our relationship with humankind's best friend. Combining history, paleontology, biology, cutting-edge medical science, and photography, Kay Frydenborg paints a picture of how humans and dogs became so closely entwined--and how we coevolved into the species we are today.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>We know dogs are our best animal friends, but have you ever thought about what that might mean? </p>Fossils show we've shared our work and homes with dogs for tens of thousands of years. Now there's growing evidence that we influenced dogs' evolution--and they, in turn, changed ours. Even more than our closest relatives, the apes, dogs are the species with whom we communicate best. <br> Combining history, paleontology, biology, and cutting-edge medical science, Kay Frydenborg paints a picture of how two different species became deeply entwined--and how we coevolved into the species we are today.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>★ "This narrative blend of history and science belongs on all shelves." --Booklist, starred review <p/> ★ "This lively blend of science and history is an outstanding example of narrative nonfiction." --Kirkus, starred review <p/> ★ "This is narrative nonfiction at its best--high interest and engaging, with meaty interdisciplinary science exploration.
