«La verdad sobre los perros» is the popular science essay on canine behaviour by Stephen Budiansky, published by Planeta in paperback (298 pages, in Spanish).
The author traces the evolution of the domestic dog and its integration into human life through three keys: the lineage, social patterns and mental habits of the species, as well as its peculiar moral character. Budiansky explains why these animals have come to occupy such a close place in our homes and what their behaviour says about their success as a species.
Work published in 2002 in the Planeta Divulgación collection, translated by Víctor Pozanco from the English original The Truth about Dogs.
Recommended for readers interested in animal behaviour and for those who live with dogs and want to understand their pet better.
Stephen Budiansky is an American writer, historian and biographer, best known for his books on animal behaviour and his criticism of animal rights. He is also the author of a number of scholarly publications about the history of cryptography, military and intelligence history, and music.
