520    "Chickens are now the most scientifically engineered of 
       livestock. How have the methods used by geneticists 
       differed from those employed by domestic breeders over 
       time? Art and Science in Breeding details the relationship
       between farm practices and agricultural genetics in 
       poultry breeding from 1850 to 1960. 
520 8  Margaret E. Derry traces the history and organization of 
       chicken breeding in North America, from craft approaches 
       and breeding as an 'art, ' to the conflicts that had 
       emerged between traditional and scientific methods by the 
       1940s. Derry assesses links between the 'scientific' 
       revolution of chicken farming and the development of 
       corporate breeding as a modern, international industry. 
       Using poultry as a case study for the wider narrative of 
       agricultural genetics, Art and Science in Breeding adds 
       considerable knowledge to a rapidly growing field of 
       inquiry."--Pub. desc.
