An elucidating collection of ten original essays, "Making Animal Meaning "reconceptualizes methods for researching animal histories and rethinks the contingency of the human-animal relationship. The vibrant and diverse field of animal studies is detailed in these interdisciplinary discussions, which include voices from a broad range of scholars and have an extensive chronological and geographical reach.

A deeply thoughtful collection -- vital to understanding central questions of agency, kinship, and animal consumption -- these essays tackle the history and philosophy of constructing animal meaning.
