Animal breeding has been complicated by persisting factors across
species, cultures, geography, and time. 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.
