Susan Squier explores the close association between humans and poultry, from the chicken's domestication to the present day. How are chickens bought, raised, bred, slaughtered, and sold, and how is this process hidden from our view - and why? Who benefits? What are the effects on our health? And what are the politics and ethics of our relationship with poultry? Squier shows what practices, meanings, and experiences this avian relationship has given rise to since the nineteenth century.
