Others examine the bodily intimacies of shared urban spaces: the regulation of rabid dogs in Banff, the maternal politics of pure milk in Hamilton and the circulation of tetanus bacilli from horse to human in Toronto. Another considers the marginalization of women in Canada's animal welfare movement. \u003cp\u003eThe authors collectively push forward from a historiography that features nonhuman animals as objects within human-centered inquiries to a historiography that considers the eclectic contacts, exchanges, and cohabitation of human and nonhuman animals.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Darcy Ingram\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1552388646\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781552388648\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Calgary Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/17\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 358\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.25lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.78h x 6.06w x 0.87d","brand":"Darcy Ingram","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43939580477695,"sku":"9781552388648","price":34.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_f50a7ef3-ab6e-480c-ac8b-013e503a94ad.jpg?v=1681442329","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/animal-metropolis-joanna-dean-9781552388648","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
