There are many excellent dog training books that cover many disciplines and methodology. There is not a "one size fits all " method as dogs and people are different. My recommendation is to go to your local library (it's FREE) and check out several different books on the disciplines that you are interested in. You can also check out the ratings on amazon.com which has tons of dog books. Some of my favorite authors include: Karen Pryor Joel McMains Janet Lewis Carol Lea Benjamin Capt. Haggerty Adele Yunck Jack and Wendy Volhard Diane Bauman Terry Arnold Connie Cleveland Patricia Burnham Alice Woodyard Remember not all methods work well for all dogs or people. Sorry there is not one best book for everyone's needs. Good luck and happy training.

What type of dog do you have? many good books but it depends on you as the pack leader to start, No book needed for that, I would say google pet training books to find what you are looking for. Hope that helps.

It depends on the particular dog you're trying to train. If your dog could read...he'd be the only one that can answer this question correctly.

This is personal opinion, but I like the books from The Monks of New Skete also, ( I haven't read any) but I have heard that The Dog Whisperer is very popular and well liked.
