Editorial Review: Product Description: This expanded new edition of a popular parrot-training book explains parrot psychology and discusses the ways in which parrot owners can apply it to solve behavior problems. The author cites the most common problems—screaming, biting, and feather-chewing—and tells how to remedy them. She also stresses the need for periodic reinforcement of desirable parrot behavior traits and advises on many aspects of good parrot care, including proper nutrition and providing the bird with steady companionship. The text is complemented with many attractive and instructive color photos and line art. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Useful book, but a bit basicI think this could be a useful book for someone new to parrots. For me, much of the information was rather basic and much of it readily available online. Some of the writing was a bit awkward but it was mostly easy to read and understand (to me). I did notice a negative review in which the reviewer seemed to have misinterpreted some of the information provided in the book.

Read More Rating:  - well-behaved parrotThere is a lot of interesting information for beginners. It focus on elements of environment and human behavor that influence our parrot bahavior. The text is well organised so it's easy to go clearly where we are interest to. Paragraphs are relatively short so isn't tired to reat at. Rating: - Not impressedI actually wasn't as impressed with this book as I thought I would be. I was hoping for lots of options and things to try to help out a few different behavioral issues, but found very few that sounded like they would work for my birds. Read the book cover to cover and although I loved the pictures, and learned one or two things, I was expecting many more techniques and tips. Rating:  - A MUST READ for any bird owner!!!!This is an amazing book! There are so many tips and suggestions for correcting or preventing bad behaviors in birds. The ideal time to read this would be before even bringing the parrot home, but it is a must read for all bird owners. The parrot world is evolving and new things are being learned all the time.....read it to learn!!!! Rating: - Great Learning ToolI am new to parrots and this book literally takes you by the hand and addresses whatever issue you are having. I highly recommend it.
