I'm Quite Impressed With This Knowledge

I am a farmer with a small holding--5 cows, 5 hogs, chickens, dogs. I've been frustrated in the past working with some of these animals and have often felt like a brute because I had to force them to do what I wanted them to do. After reading this book, I have a much better understanding of how they behave, and more importantly, WHY they behave that way, and I have been able to adjust my handling style to meet the need. I'm so very grateful Temple Grandin shared this knowledge, and I am very impressed that she can see things they way she sees them. Although this book is written for animal handlers with many more animals than me, it still applies to even us smaller handlers, and I am impressed by her insights. If you work with animals, you really need to read this book.Also, her ability to use what many see as a setback (her autism) is wonderful! I would learn from her any time.

Amazing animal psychology

Just get it. You'll learn things you never knew you needed to know on animal handling. She's amazing. Easy to read, attractively organized, & nice pictures/diagrams.

Excellent resource for smaller-scale livestock farmers.

Excellent resource to assist smaller-scale livestock farmers in learning to handle animals humanely and with less stress. The author gives insight into the different behaviors and instincts of cattle, sheep, and pigs, which will allow you to be successful in working with these animals. Also given are ideas for building facilities and corrals based on this information. This is an excellent and useful resource for small-scale farmers. Larger-scale farmers might want to consider another book by Temple Grandin, "Humane Livestock Handling." I highly recommend this book. Please mark if you find my review helpful. Thank you so much!

Very informative book and covers so much about farm animals!!

I have been reading this book for a couple months; at the beginning, I skipped around and read more on cattle. After some thought, I began again and read from the beginning. I skimmed through a few areas that I felt I had a lot of understanding on, but I think it gave me a better perspective of her writing. Highly recommend and would love to see Temple and go to one of her speaking appearances on livestock.

Perfetto e stupendo

È un libro davvero unico nel suo genere. Oltre ad essere estremamente curato dal punto di vista grafico (immagino stupende e molto ben fatte), il contenuto non è da meno. Temple Grandin è in grado di andare subito al sodo e di consigliare in maniera estremamente dettagliata ma allo stesso tempo semplice e chiara come comportarsi in maniera corretta con gli animali da reddito a 360°. Il tema fondamentale che fa da sottofondo è il fatto che se si capisce e si rispetta cosa prova l'animale in nostra presenza, il nostro lavoro e la nostra vita avrà solo dei vantaggi.Molto bella anche la considerazione finale sulla eticità nel consumo di carneIl libro è scritto in un inglese estremamente semplice e scorrevole, e lo consiglio ad allevatori e veterinari che davvero amano il loro lavoro ed hanno a cuore il benessere psicofisico dei loro animali.
