Man
and
the
Natural

an
encyclopaedic
study
of
man's
relationship
to
animals
and
plants,
is
completely
engrossing
...
It
explains
everything
-
why
we
eat
what
we
do,
why
we
plant
this
and
not
that,
why
we
keep
pets,
why
we
like
some
animals
and
not
others,
why
we
kill
the
things
we
kill
and
love
the
things
we
love
...
It
is
often
a
funny
book
and
one
to
read
again
and
again.
