- Synopsis
- This book tries to give a psychological insight into the skillful and thoughtful mind of the guide dog. How does the young dog acquire the knowledge and skills to be a safe, fluent and confident guide? Is the dog capable of taking conscious decisions about alternative courses of action, predicting what is likely to happen next in a particular situation and of remembering how to respond to a wide variety of objects, people and events? These are questions that take us to the very forefront of our understanding of animal learning, consciousness and thought.
