In Made to Order, Margaret E. Derry explains these factors and other breeding concerns in relation to both animals and society in North America and Europe over the past three centuries. Made to Order addresses how breeding methodology evolved, what characterized the aims of breeding, and the way structures were put in place to regulate the occupation. Illustrated by case studies on important farm animals and companion species, the book presents a synthetic overview of livestock breeding as a whole. It gives considerable emphasis to genetics and animal breeding in the post-1960 period, the relationship between environmental and improvement breeding, and regulation of breeding as seen through pedigrees. In doing so, Made to Order shows how studying the ancient human practice of animal breeding can illuminate the ways in which human thinking, theorizing, and evolving characterize our interactions with all-natural processes."--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aHuman-animal relationships$xHistory 606 $aLivestock$xBreeding$xHistory 606 $aTechnology & Engineering / Agriculture / Animal Husbandry$2bisacsh 608 $aHistory. 608 $aElectronic books. 610 $aagriculture. 610 $aanimal agriculture. 610 $aanimal disease. 610 $abreeding science. 610 $acows. 610 $aculture of breeding. 610 $adomestic animals. 610 $afarming. 610 $agenomics. 610 $ahistory of breeding. 610 $alivestock. 610 $amolecular genetics. 610 $apedigree. 610 $aveterinary medicine. 615 0$aHuman-animal relationships$xHistory. 615 0$aLivestock$xBreeding$xHistory. 615 7$aTechnology & Engineering / Agriculture / Animal Husbandry. 676 $a636.08/209 686 $acci1icc$2lacc 700 $aDerry$b Margaret E$01740558 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910861976303321 996 $aMade to Order$94166274 997 $aUNINA
