Title: decent starter book
Review: The writer injects her philosophy/zen-ishness initially, but by the 2nd or third chapter gets into the meat of bird psychology. It is less a how-to and more of a way of approaching parrot care. It does, however give good basic training principles. She starts you on basic decent bird (and human) behavior. It has cute illustrations for each chapter, but the font under the illustrations is microscopic. Overall, it is a decent starter book. If you don't have a parrot and are planning on it, read the book to get a reality check. Don't buy a parrot on a whim and have a 30 or 40 year potential nightmare on your hands. If someone you love has a bird, this will help you learn bird language and perhaps avoid some painful nips, too.
