  1. Pallavi Singh Rana

    Excellent book about the evolution of dogs! I learned so much and really appreciated the scientific approach.

  2. Harsh Yadav

    A good overview, but I wished it delved deeper into specific breeds. Still, a fascinating read about the origins of dogs!

  3. Bharat Singhal

    Well-researched but a bit dry. It’s a good academic resource, just not the most engaging for casual reading.

  4. Sahil Khadane

    This book is amazing! I couldn’t put it down. Highly informative and a must-read for dog enthusiasts!

    It’s a good book if you are interested in the science aspect of dog evolution. I learned a lot from it.

    An interesting concept, but at times felt a bit dry. The science was solid, just not presented in the most exciting way.

    A great read for anyone interested in dogs and their history. Easy to understand and thoroughly researched. Loved it!

  8. Divya Mekala

    The book felt long and unorganized. The writing style just wasn’t for me.

    Good information, but a bit dense in sections. I found myself re-reading paragraphs to fully grasp the concepts.

  10. Robin Thakur

    A decent book. I found the chapters on wolf ancestry particularly interesting. I was hoping for more anecdotal stories.

    I liked the archaeological insights, but felt it lacked a bit of heart. Overall, a pretty informative read.

    Shipman’s writing is engaging. I learned a lot about early human-dog interactions. Could have used more illustrations.

    Fascinating! It completely changed how I view my own dog. Some parts were a bit technical, but overall, excellent.

    An okay read. It felt a little slow in parts. It did provide some good insight into early canine evolution.
