Book Synopsis Bred for Perfection by : Margaret E. Derry
Download or read book Bred for Perfection written by Margaret E. Derry and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2003-11-11 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did animal breeding emerge as a movement? Who took part and for what reasons? How do the pedigree and market systems work? What light might the movement shed on the assumptions behind human eugenics? In Bred for Perfection, Margaret Derry provides the most comprehensive and accessible book yet published on the human quest to improve and develop livestock. Derry, herself a breeder and trained historian of science, explores the "triangle" of genetics, eugenics, and practical breeding, focusing on Shorthorn cattle, show dogs and working dogs, and one type of purebred horse, the Arabian. By examining specific breeders and the animals they produced, she illuminates the role of technology, genetics, culture, and economics in the system of purebred breeding. Bred for Perfection also provides the historical context in which this system arose, adding to our understanding of how domestication works and how our welfare—since the dawn of time—has been intertwined with the lives of animals.

Book Synopsis The Perfection of Nature by : Mackenzie Cooley
Download or read book The Perfection of Nature written by Mackenzie Cooley and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2022-10-26 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A deep history of how Renaissance Italy and the Spanish empire were shaped by a lingering fascination with breeding. The Renaissance is celebrated for the belief that individuals could fashion themselves to greatness, but there is a dark undercurrent to this fêted era of history. The same men and women who offered profound advancements in European understanding of the human condition—and laid the foundations of the Scientific Revolution—were also obsessed with controlling that condition and the wider natural world. Tracing early modern artisanal practice, Mackenzie Cooley shows how the idea of race and theories of inheritance developed through animal breeding in the shadow of the Spanish Empire. While one strand of the Renaissance celebrated a liberal view of human potential, another limited it by biology, reducing man to beast and prince to stud. “Race,” Cooley explains, first referred to animal stock honed through breeding. To those who invented the concept, race was not inflexible, but the fragile result of reproductive work. As the Spanish empire expanded, the concept of race moved from nonhuman to human animals. Cooley reveals how, as the dangerous idea of controlled reproduction was brought to life again and again, a rich, complex, and ever-shifting language of race and breeding was born. Adding nuance and historical context to discussions of race and human and animal relations, The Perfection of Nature provides a close reading of undertheorized notions of generation and its discontents in the more-than-human world.

I have 14 year old dog now who has had separation anxiety issues and I wish I had this book when she was young. It will, unfortunately, not be long until she is no longer with us (still healthy, but showing her age) and I will definitely rely on this book when it is time to bring a new puppy into the house. I would highly recommend this to anyone thinking about choosing a family pet," N. CLARK, USA “I bought this book for my son who is considering buying a puppy. I made the mistake of flicking through it before I gave it to him. I just couldn't put it down, so now it looks as though it's been read from cover to cover, which it has!
