Human Animals

""Human Animals"" by Frank Hamel is a thought-provoking book that explores the complex relationship between humans and animals. The book delves into the ethical, moral, and philosophical questions surrounding our treatment of animals and how we view them in society. Hamel examines the history of human-animal relations, from ancient times to the present day, and analyzes the ways in which our attitudes and behaviors towards animals have changed over time. He also examines the impact of industrialization, globalization, and technological advancements on our treatment of animals. Hamel argues that our treatment of animals is not only a reflection of our values and beliefs, but also has significant implications for our own health and well-being, as well as the health of the planet. ""Human Animals"" is a compelling and insightful read for anyone interested in animal rights, ethics, and the relationship between humans and the natural world.1915. From the abundant records and traditions dealing with the curious belief that certain men and women can transform themselves into animals, Mr. Hamel collected a number of instances and examples which throw fresh light on the subject both from the point of view of folk lore and occultism. The causes of transformation are various: contact with a wer-animal, touching what he has touched, wearing an animal skin, rubbing the body with ointment, slipping on a girdle, buckling on a strap, and many other expedients, magical and otherwise, may bring about the metamorphosis. This book is intended to provide a comprehensive view of the subject and to familiarize the reader with the nature of the phenomena.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
