  An addictively free-ranging survey of the massive impact that the humble and loveable sheep have had on human history.From the plains of ancient Mesopotamia to the rolling hills of medieval England to the vast sheep farms of modern-day Australia, the domesticated ungulates of the genus Ovis—sheep—have been central to the human story.Starting with our Neolithic ancestors' first forays into sheep-rearing nearly 10,000 years ago, these remarkable animals have fed us, clothed us, changed our diet and languages, helped us to win wars, decorated our homes, and financed the conquest of large swathes of the earth. Enormous fortunes and new, society-changing industries have been made from the fleeces of sheep, and cities shaped by shepherds' markets and meat trading.Sally Coulthard weaves the rich and fascinating story of sheep into a vivid and colorful tapestry, thickly threaded with engaging anecdotes and remarkable ovine facts, whose multiple strands reflect the deep penetration of these woolly animals into every aspect of human society and culture.

  Chorology, the study of the geographical distribution of organisms, offers crucial insights into how life is spread across the planet. This scientific discipline examines the patterns, processes, and factors that determine where species occur and why they are found in particular regions. From dense tropical rainforests to arid deserts and remote island ecosystems, chorology helps explain the complex relationships between organisms and their environments. Understanding these distributions is essential not only for ecological research but also for conservation efforts, climate change studies, and predicting future biodiversity trends. 
  The origins of chorology date back to early explorations and observations of naturalists who noted how plants and animals varied across regions. Over time, with advancements in biology, geography, and technology, chorology has developed into a distinct field of study. It now integrates concepts from ecology, evolution, geology, and climatology to provide a comprehensive understanding of how species disperse, adapt, and thrive in diverse environments. By identifying distribution patterns, chorologists can trace the historical movements of species, understand their evolutionary relationships, and predict how current and future environmental changes might alter these patterns. 
  One of the fundamental aspects of chorology is recognizing that species distributions are influenced by a combination of environmental, biological, and historical factors. Climate, topography, soil composition, and availability of resources play significant roles in determining where species can survive and reproduce. Additionally, interactions such as competition, predation, and symbiosis shape the presence or absence of species in particular areas.
