Companion Animals in Society
Since companion animals are a significant part of American society, a substantial body of research has been developed to demonstrate how they play a significant role impacting the physical and psychological health of people of all ages. Animal companions also help to drive an economic engine estimated at near forty billion dollars per year for food, toys, veterinary care and other support services and products. Companion Animals in Society combines the current available knowledge on companion animal husbandry with an introduction to these issues and how society is currently coping with them in order to provide the most useful resource in the market today.

Not really a textbook,
Had to read this in a grad school class taught by the ASPCA, but the level of information is really geared towards middle or high school students. It’s a nice introduction to the world of companion animals and the history of the welfare movement, but there’s not much in it that stimulates active thinking. I’d recommend a book by James Serpell or another author before this book. I don’t really understand why this is categorized as a textbook, 70-100 dollars is IMHO way too much to pay for this little book.
