Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pointer and His Predecessors: An Illustrated History of the Pointing Dog From the Earliest Times Since the publication of The Pointer and his Predecessors in its original form, a demand appears to have arisen for a cheaper, more portable edition, which shall be suitable for everyday use. To meet this demand the present volume has been designed, to synchronise if possible with a similar edition in French. It has been carefully revised throughout and a few additions have been made chiefly to the chapter on kennel management: otherwise it remains unaltered. The general arrangement is identical, with the exception that the descriptions of the illustrations, formerly in a separate chapter, have been distributed, so that each may be opposite the picture of which it treats; and the forty original plates have been reduced to twenty-two of the most apposite in order to make the book as compact as possible. After consideration, the chapter that deals with Shows and Working Trials has been left untouched because since 1901, the year when it was written, there has been no appreciable change in the policy of the various canine Societies. One fresh subject alone seems to me to require consideration. The late Mr. C. J. Cornish, in the course of a most thoughtful criticism of this book for 'Country Life, ' remarked, 'There is only one bed-rock subject which Mr. Arkwright does not discuss, and that is the history of the growth and transmission of the gift or habit of pointing.' This omission not having been due to any cloudiness in my own mind as to the derivation of the phenomenon, I am now presenting my view of the subject without claiming for it any special originality.

Download or read book A Matter of Breeding written by Michael Brandow and published by Beacon Press. This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A provocative look at the ‘cult of pedigree’ and an entertaining social history of purebred dogs—“a must-read for all dog lovers” (Booklist). So-called “purebreds” are the mainstay of the dog industry. Expert Michael Brandow argues these aren’t time-honored traditions—but rather commercial inventions of the 19th century that were marketed as status symbols to a growing middle class. Combining social history and consumer studies with sharp commentary, this reveals the sordid history of the dog industry and shows how our brand-name pets pay the price with devastatingly poor health. It includes chapters devoted to popular breeds such as: • Golden Retrievers • Boston Terriers • English Bulldogs • Labrador Retrievers An essential read for animal lovers and animal rights activists everywhere, A Matter of Breeding is a fresh take on the history pedigree dogs and encourages us to love all our furry friends—no matter the coat color or price tag. “If you’re considering welcoming a dog (or two) into your family, read Michael Brandow’s fascinating and eye-opening book before visiting a pet store or breeder.” —Betsy Banks Saul, founder of Petfinder.com
Download or read book Matter and Form in Early Modern Science and Philosophy written by and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2012-06-22 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Matter and form have been fundamental principles in natural science since Greek Antiquity and their apparent rejection during the seventeenth century typically has been described as a precursor to the emergence of modern science. This volume reconsiders the fate of these principles and the complex history of their reception. By analyzing work being done in physics, chemistry, theology, physiology, psychology, and metaphysics, and by considering questions about change, identity, and causation, the contributors show precisely how matter and form entered into early modern science and philosophy. The result is our best picture to date of the diverse reception of matter and form among the innovators of the early modern period.
