Dogs: Their Fossil Relatives and Evolutionary History is a book by Xiaoming Wang and Richard H. Tedford. It was published in 2008 by Columbia University Press. The book offers a "holistic picture of canid evolution" and an overview of existing and extinct taxa, also detailing the evidence for the domestication and evolution of domestic dogs from their wolf ancestors.[1] It has received particular praise for its in-depth coverage of Chinese canids.[2]
