| Publisher Description: Does living with a pet really make a person happier and healthier? Which of the two has a better quality of life: the chicken that ends up as dinner or the rooster that dies in a cockfight? Why is it wrong to eat the family dog? Why do so many people find snakes repugnant? Drawing on more than two decades of research in the new field of anthrozoology the science that studies human-animal relations this study offers surprising answers to these and other moral enigmas humans face on a daily basis with animals. Hal Herzog combines anthropology, behavioral economics, evolutionary psychology, and philosophy to weave an engrossing narrative laced with real-life anecdotes and scientific research. This book will forever change the way readers look attheir relationship with animals and, ultimately, how they see themselves. " |
