From the milk we drink in the morning, to the leather shoes we slip on for the day, to the steak we savor at dinner, our daily lives are thoroughly bound up with cows. Yet there is a far more complex story behind this seemingly benign creature, which Hannah Velten explores here, plumbing the rich trove of myth, fact, and legend surrounding these familar animals.

        From the plowing field to the rodeo to the temple, Velten tracks the constantly changing social relationship between man and cattle, beginning with the domestication of aurochs around 9000 BCE.  From there,

Title: A source of milk, leather, traction and meat, but also important as a cultural concept.

Review: I share the other reviewers' sentiments, but will give a longer list of reasons. Let's start with the fact that Velten is a fine writer who here manages to make cattle a fascinating subject. Then there are the many and excellent illustrations. Then the topic--something as prosaic as cows made into a compelling and fascinating read. Be aware, however, that this is not a book on farming, dairying, or animal agriculture; it's more a cultural analysis of cows, and cattle more generally as features in the human mind--as expressed in fable, story, art, film, painting.

The first portion tracks cattle from the ancestral bovine. Chapter 2 is largely myth and legend, much of it fascinating--the Minotaur and all. The book looks at uses of cattle: milk, traction, leather, meat. It examines different breeds, and cows as symbol of rural idyll. It deals with more, such as rodeos, differing cultural attitudes regarding cattle, and more. There is a great deal of information. Velten also considers industrial agriculture in the production of meat and milk, noting that it's out of sight and out of mind, and the animals are regarded as industrial inputs, not as living beings.
