Summary
"Describes how some cultures have worshipped cattle or made them a symbol of pastoral freedom; how cattle were herded and domesticated; how the beef and dairy industries developed in Europe and the New World; how butter influenced the Protestant Reformation and helped some women to economic independence; how the cattle cultures helped settle North America; how meat became industrialized and margarine appeared as the first plastic food; and how science today continues to transform the lives of cattle and their connection to human beings." In general, this work explores the "impact of science, technology, and economics on cattle." -- Book jacket.
