Buch, das gelesen wurde, sich aber in einem guten Zustand befindet. Der Einband weist nur sehr geringfügige Beschädigungen auf, wie z.B. kleinere Schrammen, er hat aber weder Löcher, noch ist er eingerissen. Bei gebundenen Büchern ist der Schutzumschlag möglicherweise nicht mehr vorhanden. Die Bindung weist geringfügige Gebrauchsspuren auf. Die Mehrzahl der Seiten ist unbeschädigt, das heißt, es gibt kaum Knitter oder Einrisse, es wurden nur in geringem Maße Bleistiftunterstreichungen im Text vorgenommen, es gibt keine Textmarkierungen und die Randbereiche sind nicht beschrieben. Alle Seiten sind vollständig vorhanden. Genauere Einzelheiten sowie eine Beschreibung eventueller Mängel entnehmen Sie bitte dem Angebot des Verkäufers.

Reviews
"A book for people who love their dogs beyond all measure-and who realize, with Karen Shanley, that dogs love us in the same way-sometimes beyond what we deserve. This book suggests some of the deeper reasons for this extraordinary ability to love and for that alone I urge you to read it. I defy you to remain impervious to the magic it contains." --Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson, author of "When Elephants Weep," and "Dogs Never Lie About Love." "Karen Shanley's moving memoir is a tribute to the healing power of her relationships with several remarkable dogs. In her search to find answers for her dogs, Shanley also finds answers for herself. Anyone who loves dogs and other animals will find a beautiful wisdom in the unexpected twists and turns her journey takes, and in the many lessons that her dogs offer in the art of life, loss and love." --Suzanne Clothier, world-renowned dog trainer and author of "Bones Would Rain From the Sky: Deepening Our Relationships with Dogs." "There are good personal stories and great personal stories about our interrelationships with other animals. THE DOGS OF DREAMTIME is a great one for showing how our "best friends" and their wild relatives-any and all animals, for that matter-play a significant role in defining who we are in the grand scheme of things. In the absence of animals it's easy to see that we lose much-perhaps all-of who we are. It will be a sad and very lonely day if we ever wake up and have to ask, "Where have all the animals gone?" -- Marc Bekoff, Ph.D., editor of "The Encyclopedia of Animal Behavior "and author of "Minding Animals: Awareness, Emotions, and Heart and The Ten Trusts: What We Must Do to Care for the Animals WeLove" (with Jane Goodall). "Life offers us opportunities for growth, wisdom, and redemption where we least expect to find them. In THE DOGS OF DREAMTIME, Karen Shanley weaves a spellbinding story where the visceral connection between Shanley and her dogs-all brilliantly portrayed- qlultimately transforms her life. This book is a page turner!" --Marty Becker, D.V.M., resident veterinarian on ABC TV's Good Morning America and co-author of "Chicken Soup for the Pet Lover's Soul," and "The Healing Power of Pets." "I am used to being pulled into a book that just doesn't want you to put it down written by my favorite non-dog authors. This is the first dog book that pulled me in from opening it and didn't let me put it down until well after 1am last night. I was nodding yes, I understand that, and I was crying sad tears and happy tears."--Tami Bridges, owner of the CSDogBookReview list, "A book for people who love their dogs beyond all measure-and who realize, with Karen Shanley, that dogs love us in the same way-sometimes beyond what we deserve.

Synopsis
"A book for people who love their dogs beyond all measure-and who realize, with Karen Shanley, that dogs love us in the same way- sometimes beyond what we deserve. I defy you to remain impervious to the magic it contains."--Jeffrey Moussaieff Masson, best-selling author of "When Elephants Weep, and "Dogs Never Lie About Love How intense a bond can man and dog truly forge? What's a person to do when her world is whole only with a beloved dog-but her family is not as keen on the idea? When does a dog's behavior become too dangerous for even the most loving person to accept? Karen Shanley tackles all these questions in lyrical prose that brings to life her relationships with three very different dogs: Kiera, who came to her in a dream; Molly, Kiera's beautiful deaf sister; and Magic, the scrawny rescue dog who captures Karen's heart. Dogs of Dreamtime is Karen's story: It's about a time when she is forced to take a long, hard look at what matters and what does not, what she can control and what she cannot. And about the hard choices-choices of life and death-she has to make to keep moving forward. In the same way that her dogs bring to Karen experiences of joy, struggle, and, ultimately, uplifting change, this book will touch every reader., Clearly besotted by her dogs, Shanley, managing partner of a marketing and communications firm, recounts her relationship with three of them.

    Unfortunately I received a damaged book, the item and the package both were damaged and it was clearly evident its appearance that it happened during transit. The seller was very understanding and gave me a full refund for the damaged book, though it was no fault of their own. Other than the damage, the book was as described, the quality and condition aside from the damaged spot was like new. The cost of the book was reasonable. I would definitely purchase from the seller again.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I recently purchased an item from this eBay seller, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. From the prompt communication to the fast shipping, everything was handled with utmost professionalism. The item arrived exactly as described and was well-packaged to ensure its safety during transit. The seller was courteous and responsive, making the entire transaction smooth and hassle-free. I highly recommend this seller to anyone looking for quality products and excellent service.
