图书描述

Review

An excellent summary of an often-ignored subject. . . . Hanson covers the social evolution of how we have seen zoos, and delves into changes in how zoos see themselves.

(Adrian Barnett New Scientist )

Taking the kids to the zoo is as much a Sunday afternoon ritual as watching the NFL on television. But while the zoo is a pretty common experience, it is also an unsettling idea, causing the human animal to feel uncomfortable. . . . The ideas that sustained [zoos] were, as Elizabeth Hanson explains in Animal Attractions, progressive. These were not seedy, sideshow affairs where you went for cheap thrills but places for 'recreation, self improvement and spiritual renewal.'

(Geoffrey Norman Wall Street Journal )

If ever a book lived up to its title and subtitle, this one, an interesting and readable history of zoos and influences on their development in the US, certainly does.

(Choice )

This book is rich in striking examples. . . . [It] leaves readers with a clear appreciation of the pressures that shaped American zoos in the past and continue to drive innovations in display today.

(Elizabeth Blackmar American Historical Review )

Animal Attractions carefully and importantly contextualizes the zoo amidst broader developments in American culture. . . . [A]n important contribution to the vital rethinking of zoos and urban space and the relationship of nature and culture in modern America.

(Brett Mizelle Journal of American History )

Animal Attractions is an enjoyable overview of zoo cultural history, and will be of interest to scientific and cultural historians, as well as anyone curious about the context of what they are seeing during a day at the zoo.

(Lisa Faust Quarterly Review of Biology )

Review

Elizabeth Hanson's Animal Attractions is much more than a history of zoological parks, it is rather a phenomenology of zoos and zoo people.

(Terry Maple, Director, Zoo Atlanta )
