Why Don’t You Listen? is a beautifully illustrated story book, teaching children how to recognise when dogs are in pain. It is a must read for all families that share their lives and homes with our four-legged friends. With 23% of UK households owning at least one dog, the human-dog bond is flourishing. However, behind this rosy statistic lurk common behaviour problems that lead to emotional suffering, frequent rehoming and even euthanasia. Many behaviour problems result from an innocent lack of understanding, misinterpretation, and miscommunication. All of which could be avoided if we only learnt to listen. Canine Arthritis Management is a vet-led organisation dedicated to raising awareness of a prevalent cause of pain in dogs and to deliver solutions to ensure dogs and their owners lead long and happy lives.
The One Health concept recognizes that the health of humans, animals and the environment are interlinked, and that maintaining optimal health for all is dependent on a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach at a local, national and global level. This book provides information and guidance for veterinary nurses in understanding both the scope of this concept and their role within it. Beginning with an overview of the global issues faced, One Health for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians focuses on providing an insight into how One Health can be applied within a veterinary practice and in the local community. One Health for Veterinary Nurses and Technicians has been written by contributors based within the United Kingdom. However, the content is applicable to those working internationally within a veterinary environment and will also be of interest to other allied healthcare professionals.
Describes the first scheme for female migration from Britain to Australia in the 1830s. The women's life experiences show they were drawn from a wide cross-section of society. This book challenges those who disparaged these women; they were bold and enterprising, ideal workers and wives in the new colonies.
Humans possess an extraordinary capacity for culture, from the arts and language to science and technology. But how did the human mind—and the uniquely human ability to devise and transmit culture—evolve from its roots in animal behavior? Darwin’s Unfinished Symphony presents a captivating new theory of human cognitive evolution. This compelling and accessible book reveals how culture is not just the magnificent end product of an evolutionary process that produced a species unlike all others—it is also the key driving force behind that process. Kevin N. Lala tells the story of the painstaking fieldwork, the key experiments, the false leads, and the stunning scientific breakthroughs that led to this new understanding of how culture transformed human evolution. It is the story of how Darwin’s intellectual descendants picked up where he left off and took up the challenge of providing a scientific account of the evolution of the human mind.
