This list will be filled with books and DVDs, which I find very instructive and recommendable for everyone. It will be mainly basic literature for everyday life, but also specific literature, such as nose work or biomechanics. 

I will only recommend those literature behind which I stand at least 90%. I will write one or two sentences about each book so that you can judge for yourself if this book is interesting.
