Insightful and timely October 3, 2005 Lit lover (California) 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
Wow, this book really puts things in perspective. As a landlord, I read this book to provide me with accurate information regarding the safety (or danger) of allowing dogs to live in my properties. I am so very glad I did. The book points the infrequency and lack of severity of most dog bites and offers solutions to help prevent future dog attacks from occurring. I now feel armed and educated to set realistic, responsible dog policy. The statistics are mind blowing and the information is invaluable. Dogs Bite is great resource for landlords, policy makers, schools, media outlets, etc.
Amazing! October 3, 2005 J. England 10 out of 10 found this review helpful
This book is truly amazing. A realistic look at the statistics of dog bites, this book is packed with great information not just about whether or not dog bite incidents are as dangerous as the insurance companies and newspapers would have us believe, but also about the best things we can do as a society to address dog-specific safety. This is one of those books that makes me wish I had the money to purchase hundreds of copies so that I could hand them out on the street corner, let alone the money to send a box to every legislative body from local town mayors to the Congress and Senate. This book needs to be read by every parent, every school principal, every pet owner, every perspective pet owner, every person with a pet-owning neighbor - well, everyone. The only downside to this book - things like this don't hit the New York Times Best Sellers List, no matter how much they should.
