About this product

Product Information

In this illuminating discussion of the role of animals in Western thought, the author shows, through his analysis of folklore, popular ideas, and natural history, that man's traditional fascination with animals is more than it appears. Professor Sax asserts that 'animals put us in touch with modes of perception that are prior to culture. Encounters with animals compel us to question what it means to be human.'

...a charming and provocative excursion through the enchanted realm of articulate animals who communicate with people on many levels. Sax provides insightful analyses that will not only delight readers and stimulate scholars but also add much to our knowledge of the ways in which animal symbolism reflects and is affected by societal forces., The book, adorned with a great many black and white illustrations, is simultaneously entertaining and educational.

Super impressed with this seller! They had the best price by far for this book! Both the cost of the book and the shipping fee was far better than average! The book came exactly as described, it was well packaged and quite a bit earlier than expected! The seller was polite and replied quickly to my messages. I’ll definitely make another purchase soon! Thank you to the seller! Be safe and keep up the great work!

WONDERFUL book! Better than described, in just like new condition [not just good]. Packaged very carefully, shipped very securely. Great seller, would buy from again in a heartbeat! No communication occurred, but I imagine it would have been as good as the rest of their customer service. Very happy with purchase, thank you very much!
