Περιγραφή
At the heart of our society, an invisible problem lurks in the shadow of our everyday lives: the conflict between humans and their best friend, the dog. This book reveals a disturbing truth behind dog attacks and bites — a symptom of a deeper social dysfunction that affects every corner of the earth, particularly Greece, where more than 5,000 such incidents are recorded annually. Through a thoroughly detailed review of global literature and unique statistical data, the scope of a problem is unveiled that is not only anthropocentric but also emotional about survival and, ultimately, a test for our society as a whole. Guided by four scientific studies, this work goes beyond mere diagnosis, delving deeper to offer solutions that target the root of the problem. It presents an action plan for municipalities, initiatives for schools, expertise for more effective controls, and a plethora of statistical data that illuminate the path towards a more peaceful coexistence between humans and animals. This book is addressed to every reader seeking a deeper understanding of this contemporary challenge and wishing to contribute to the creation of a society where coexisting with animals does not mean fear and confrontation but cooperation, understanding, and mutual respect. It is a guide towards a more empathetic and fair coexistence, a challenge worth tackling together.
