The Cow

A Natural and Cultural History

Tracing the evolution and history of cattle from the prehistoric aurochs – ancestors of the modern cow – of cave paintings, to genome sequencing and technological breeding in the 21st century, Catrin Rutland gives a comprehensive, richly illustrated account of the origins, anatomy and behaviours of cattle, their interaction with humans and their cultural, religious and economic importance. The book ends with a directory of 40 global breeds.
