Traditional science and philosophy declare such notions about our pets to be irrational and anthropomorphic. Animals, they say, have only the crudest form of thought and no sense of self at all. Leslie Irvine's If You Tame Me challenges these entrenched views by demonstrating that our experience of animals and their behavior tells a different story. Dogs and cats have been significant elements in human history and valued members of our households for centuries.Animals, culture, and society.DogsBehaviorCatsBehaviorDogsPsychologyCatsPsychologyHuman-animal relationshipsDogsBehavior.CatsBehavior.DogsPsychology.CatsPsychology.Human-animal relationships.636.7/0887Irvine Leslie1095298MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910814481803321If you tame me4024675UNINA
