Meet world-renowned author and animal behaviorist Karen Pryor at Porter Square Books in Cambridge, MA, on February 9, 2010 at 7:00 p.m.
Karen Pryor is the founder and leading proponent of clicker training, the worldwide movement that uses positive reinforcement to communicate with pets and other animals. Join her on February 9th for a multimedia discussion and the signing of her latest book, Reaching the Animal Mind.
About Reaching the Animal Mind:
Karen Pryor gives everyone the technology for not just reaching into animal minds, but glimpsing their souls. Reaching the Animal Mind is about an entirely new way to see, understand, and communicate with animals. Animals are a lot smarter and more aware than we used to think. They show humor, affection, and regret, uncanny intelligence, and depth of thought—but you have to know how to bring it out.
During her interactive discussion, animal trainer and scientist Karen Pryor will share stories of extraordinary interactions with the largest and smallest of creatures in the oceans and on land.
If you’re in love with dogs, go ga-ga over whales, or marvel at elephants, if you ever wished you could talk to the animals and have them talk to you, then this is an event you won’t want to miss!
