Farm Animals in Britain, 1850-2001

Karen Sayer

Focusing on the origins and development of the conceptualisation of the biological animal body as a 'technological' resource, or indeed problem, within modern British agriculture, this book addresses the changing understanding, among agriculturalists and the public, of 'nature' in farming.
