Chapter one of my forthcoming book on wolves, dogs and humans is in the bag with my favourite collaborator, and oldest and most talented friend, Camille. As reported on in New York Magazine (online here.)

Echoes In The Ice: How Dogs And Men Emerged From The Land Of Wolves

The book has a central thesis that the domestication of wolves into dogs was not merely a human achievement but a mutually transformative evolutionary event, where wolves played an integral part in not only shaping human pre-history, but in allowing it to exist in the first place. They were vital to our very survival during the last Ice Age – going on to help craft the shape of both human society and the human mind. This will be explored through the multiple lenses of science and myth, psychology and literature, and most of all from travels to visit wolves around the world.
