Bred for Perfection
Author: Margaret E. Derry
Publisher: JHU Press
ISBN: 9780801873447
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 228
Book Description
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 Description
Excerpt from Milking Shorthorn Breeders' Guide: Containing Descriptions of the Milking Shorthorn Herds Owned by Members of the Milking Shorthorn Club of America Articles of General Breed Interest by Live Stock Authorities of the Country and a Repair of Record of Merits Lists From Volumes 1-2-3 of the M "The lapse of years only serves to strengthen the position of the Shorthorn. A century of close contact with the most exacting requirements of the farm and feed-lot has only deepened the hold of the 'red, white and roan upon the affections of the agricultural world. The source of this perennial prosperity must be apparent even to the most casual observer. The strength of the Shorthorn lies in its unrivaled range of adaptability; in the facility with which it responds to the varied demands of those who pursue a system of diversified farming - the rearing of live stock as an essential feature in a well ordered scheme of mixed husbandry. The Shorthorn is distinctly and emphatically a dual-purpose breed." - A. H. Sanders in Shorthorn Cattle. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
