Abstract
THIS volume, of which some chapters have already appeared in the Contemporary Review, will be eagerly read and studied by all interested in animal psychology and the treatment of the inferior animals by man. For, mixed up with a large amount of perhaps somewhat irrelevant matter relating to the history of religions, the author has collected a vast store of information relating to the estimation or otherwise in which animals have been held by the ancient nations from Egyptian, Bhuddistic, and Græco-Roman times to the Middle Ages; while the concluding chapter deals with modern ideas on the subject.
