May 2024Breed Differences in Dog Behavior
Why Tails Wag Differently
by Renee L Ha, Tracy L Brad, James C Ha
Humans have bred dogs for physical and behavioral characteristics for millennia. These efforts can have unintended side effects, however, which may be either advantageous or cause issues - such as a predisposition to certain medical complaints, or, controversially, behavioural issues. The scientific study of domestic dogs is still in its infancy, but public demand for this information is at a record high as more and more pet owners seek to understand their canine family members. Focusing on the behavioral differences and tendencies that have arisen in different breed lines, this book explores, summarizes, and explains the scientific evidence on what breed can tell us about behaviour - and, crucially, what it cannot. This book covers: - the impact of inbreeding, how it contributes to problematic behavioral issues such as anxiety and aggression, and how it potentially affects the future health of the breed; - the limits of predicting a dog's behavior based upon breed, individual differences within breeds, and thus the corresponding limitations of breed-specific legislation; - guidance for professionals to help their clients better understand behavioral issues, traits, and appropriate expectations around the right breed for their household. Providing a comprehensive and approachable view of the science behind breed-specific behaviors, this book gives dog enthusiasts from all professional and personal backgrounds a better understanding of why dogs do what they do, and how we can improve our relationships with our canine companions. Covering genetics, phylogeny of canids, temperament, aggression, social behavior, and the history of dog breeding, it is an important read for researchers, students, veterinary practitioners and animal behaviourists, as well as shelter staff, dog trainers, or anyone looking for a greater understanding of dog breed differences.

The ArtsJune 2019Infinitely Close to Nature
by Vo Trong Nghia
The first book of Vo Trong Ngnia, “the architect who has changed Vietnam” commented by BBC and CNN. He is a hot candidate for Pritzker Architecture Prize, winner of over 15 international prizes including International Architecture Award and ARCASIA award, recognized worldwide on bamboo architecture and green architecture. “Sometimes we just ask the question: how many green areas, how many big trees, can we give back to our earth when we design the building?” ——Vo Trong Nghia Infinitely close to nature is the first book by Vo Trong Nghia, leading architect in bamboo architecture and green architecture, winner of more than 15 international awards including International Architecture Award, ARCASIA award, FuturArc Green leadership Award, etc. Through Vo’ s writings, interviews and cases, Infinitely Close to Nature records his classic practice in bamboo architecture, green architecture and low-cost houses. Vo believes that architecture should connect people with nature, instead of separating them off. He infuses highly “invasive” plants into the architecture space, creates “inner” space that is open or semi-open to nature, and builds green architecture with sustainable and local materials. By developing unique processing methods, he turns bamboo into “the steel of 21st century” and uses them to build strikingly grand bamboo architecture. In addition to commercial projects, Vo also pays attention to the residential condition of the low- er-income, designing low-cost houses which are inexpensive and easy to install, with their design also highly praised. The New York Times commented that he has brought Japanese simplicity to Southeastern Asia, CNN said he changed the skyline of Asia. With more than 60 high-res color pictures, Infinitely close to nature fully demonstrates the interior and exterior structure, details, inspirations and the aesthetical source of Vo’ s works.
