Beschreibung:
Everything you need to know (or would be interested to learn) about humanity's other best friend and partner, the humble chicken, who played a crucial role in world history.
Tracing the chicken from its original domestication in the jungles of Southeast Asia some 10,000 years ago to today's Western societies where it is now humanity's single most important source of protein. In a masterful combination of historical sleuthing and journalistic exploration on four continents, Lawler reframes the way we feel and think about all domesticated animals and even nature itself.
