    dogs can smell when a woman is ovulating they can train dogs to DETECT CANCER BY SMELL takeaways: - there is probably low-hanging technology around scent we never discovered, like a telescope or microscope - dogs can probably detect way more than we realize, or even comprehend

    This book is massively anxiety-inducing. Strongest physiological reaction I’ve had to a book since American Psycho.
