Pryor, K. (2009) Reaching the Animal Mind: Clicker training and what it teaches us about all animals. NY: Scribner |
“This is a book about loving, understanding, and communicating with animals. Animals are a lot smarter and more aware than we used to think. Now you can share my personal experiences training and communicating with animals ranging from an elephant to a hermit crab. You’ll learn how you, too, can bring out the intelligence, personality, warmth, even humor, in dogs, cats, horses, and other pets, and have fun doing it, too.” - Karen Pryor

Pryor, K. (2000). Lads Before the Wind: Diary of a Dolphin Trainer. Waltham, MA: Sunshine Books, Inc.
It's an expanded version of my dolphin-training saga, Lads Before the Wind, which tells the story of how I first learned
about shaping and marker signals and all the rest, training dolphins in Hawaii. Lads has become a bit of a classic over the
years, especially among trainers. Now I've added four more chapters on my dolphin adventures after Sea Life Park days, from
diving in the nets of tuna boats to using operant conditioning to REALLY talk, and even joke, with a dolphin. It ends with
a chapter on clicker training — which is really, after all, dolphin training for everyone. For more information, go

Pryor, K. (1999). Don't Shoot the Dog! The New Art of Teaching and Training. New York, NY: Bantam Books.
This is the "Bible" on positive reinforcement training, or operant conditioning,
and how it works - with people, and of course with animals. Fun to read too! Over 300,000 in print. Karen Pryor's clear and
entertaining explanation of behavioral training methods made "Don't Shoot the Dog" a bestselling classic! Now this revised
edition, published by Bantam, presents more of her insights into animal and human behavior. For more information, go to www.clickertraining.com
