Provides an in-depth and fascinating cultural history of a species that is held in extreme paradoxical regard (in Western culture, at least), rabbits being simultaneously understood and treated as ‘pets’, food, experimental animals and pests. Explores representations of rabbits in domains as varied as mythology, religion, literature, laboratories and pornography. - ANNIE POTTS
