[ALBΞRT MacGloan @AlbertMacGloan]

“Half-baked, spurious NATIONALISM cooked up by people who would rather find scapegoats than solve problems is as UNPATRIOTIC as an attachment to any other tired dogma of the past that Americans consigned to the ash heap of history.”

[Zuzanna Ladyga @ZLadyga]

This is so much more than a book on dog training history! Genealogy of Obiedience offers an inspiring redefinition of Foucault's concept of biopolitics -- or, in more down-to-earth terms -- a history of how we have disciplined our lives alongside those of our dogs.
