The Art of Kula

Thank goodness someone has made yoga&nbsp;philosophy accessible to everyone in the 21st&nbsp;century.&nbsp;Some may think yoga philosophy is for people who live in caves without the worries most of us living in this mad world now have.&nbsp;On the contrary, we need yoga philosophy even more. The Business Casual Yogi beautifully translates yogic wisdom and practices into an easy to understand guide enabling us to shine our light as we negotiate our life and career in modern day chaos. &nbsp;

'. . . adds to our understanding of both animal/human relationships and to children’s literature. With careful attention to historical context and insightful analyses of texts and images, Cosslett decodes the cultural message of animal stories from the eighteenth to the early twentieth centuries, tracing the impact of the creation of the modern "child," religion, Darwinism, and imperialism. Her book makes an important contribution to the current debate over 'anthropomorphism' as a way of advancing animal rights by showing how today's arguments were prefigured in texts such as Black Beauty, Beautiful Joe, Wind in the Willows, and Peter Rabbit.' Martin Danahay, Professor of English, Brock University  'Like all worthwhile literary history or criticism, Talking Animals's major premise reverberates well beyond its contribution to its stated focus, in this case examining the frequent appearances of talking animals in fiction designated as children's literature... relevant reading for anyone concerned with the continued evolution of the human-animal bond.'  AnthrozoÃ¶s   ’Cosslett's attention to critically neglected literature makes this an illuminating and entertaining study.’  Journal of Victorian Culture  ’... it is a book that discusses a lot of material that is too often neglected, treating it with welcome intelligence and sympathy.’  Children's Books History Society Newsletter  ’... a meticulous study... Cosslett's scholarship and research is very solid... a valuable resource for scholars interested in early British children's literature, in talking animal stories, and in the historical and cultural context that contributed to the rise of the talking animal story.’  Children's Literature Association Quarterly  ’... a significant contribution to the developing literature on animals in children's literature. We should look forward to Tess Cosslett producing a sequel.’  Journal of Children's Literature Studies
