In western societies, pets are kept in at least half of all ouseholds. But why do we keep pets? Are they good for our health? Did our ancestors keep pets too? Can they promote good will towards other animals and people? This volume explores these and other questions about our relationship with pets. It will be of interest to students and researchers in anthropology, history, psychology, sociology and veterinary science, and to interested pet-owning general readers.Podberscek, Anthony L. is the author of 'Companion Animals And Us Exploring the Relationships Between People And Pets', published 0014 under ISBN 9780521017718 and ISBN 0521017718.
