I guess my question for those of us who don't have farms, is where is the science behind Cesar's methods? What papers have been written, documenting the principles of Cesar's methods? What journals are they in? Who is trying to apply Cesar's techniques to other species? What conferences exist? Who is trying to extend Cesar's method further? Are people trying to precisely define the term "energy"?

Even if science gets it wrong the first couple dozen times, you have to keep trying and studying to progress. Otherwise, you just stay in the circus, beating elephants with sticks, because that's what your trainer taught you, and that's the way it's always been done.
Cesars method and theory is centered around having studied how dogs communicate with each other and communicating with them in the same manner. Just like Monty Roberts does with horses.

Cesar is the leading athority on this method and he has written books on it. I am quite sure that he has read dogs wrong and has learned along the wayd. That is what life is all about.

He says he is not a dog trainer, he trains people, he rehabilitates dogs..
