Reviews

'A 'must' journal to own and read for scholars, advocates, and others interested in the growing field of anthrozoology. Every issue has at least one article that I return to year after year for its insights and contributions to the study of human-animal relationships. Anthrozoos significantly extends our understanding of human-animal relationships and their place in society.' Arnold Arluke, Professor of Sociology and Anthropology, Northeastern University, Boston 'I have never failed to be impressed by the unique contribution of Anthrozoos over the last 20 years to the study of human-animal relationships and their place in society. With its new design and online availability, Anthrozoos will continue to be the essential journal for any scholars, institutions and for all individuals who are concerned with animal welfare and the study of interactions between animals and humans.' Juliet Clutton-Brock, Editor of Journal of Zoology and formerly Senior Archaeozoologist
