Know about the book -

The ^AAnimal in Ottoman Egypt is written by Alan Mikhail and published by Oxford University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0199315299 (ISBN 10) and 9780199315291 (ISBN 13).

Animals in rural Egypt became enmeshed in social relationships and made possible many tasks otherwise impossible. Rather than focus on what animals represented or symbolized, Mikhail discusses their social and economic functions, as Ottoman Egypt cannot be understood without acknowledging animals as central shapers of the early modern world.
