A comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction to the fascinating natural history of the pig, from prehistory to the present
At any given time, there are around one billion pigs in the world; that's one for every seven of us. And where would we be without them? Prolific, ubiquitous, smart, adaptable, and providers of high-quality protein, pigs have been our companions since neolithic times, when they obligingly domesticated themselves, coming in from the wild to root around our waste pits. But it's not all about the bacon; today, bred in micro sizes, the resourceful pig has developed a whole new career as a popular pet. And thanks to genome mapping, we now know that the pig shares many common physiological features with humans, spurring the use of pig tissue and organs in medical research and surgery. Beautifully designed and illustrated, The Pig provides a snout-to-tail natural history of this important species, from the prehistoric hell pig to today's placid porker, covering the pig's evolution and domestication, anatomy and biology, behavior, role in human life and culture, and breeds. The book also features an engrossing and visually stunning photographic gallery of some thirty popular breeds from around the world, with essential information about each. Filled with surprising facts and insights, The Pig will delight anyone who loves these animals and wants to understand them better.- Provides a comprehensive, richly illustrated introduction to the pig's evolution and domestication, anatomy and biology, behavior, role in human life and culture, and breeds

I bought it for me, never used it and decided to re-gift to a friend that has issues with her hands and opening bottles. My friend loves it.

Does what it is supposed to do!
Color: Silver, Set name: Deluxe Wine Set
Really like this. It is very easy to use and clean and does the job well. I got it on sale so it was worth what I paid for it but not sure I would buy it at full price. If you like heavy red wines, this is a must.

Poor quality, broke very quickly
Color: Silver, Set name: Deluxe Wine Set
I've owned this for less than 90 days and the aerator has already stopped working. I put a fresh set of batteries in and it's completely dead
