2008-06-17 technical, but not in depth

this book is great at skimming lots of subjects, but not in any depth. I'm doing a dog psychology course, and expected this book to have lots of indepth detail about dogs, behaviour,psychology, and physical information, but was solely dissapointed. If you want a book you can get your teeth into, don't buy this one there are many others that cover the same subjects with much more detail, in less technical language. But also there are books that cover the subjects in a much clearer technical way, this book is neither one or the other, which i found annoying. I'd rather a book be catered for the general dog owner, or the specialist, this tried to be all to everyone and failed miserably. Not detailed enough to be a good student book, but too technical in some parts to be a laymans book. Missed the mark.
