THE COW: A TRIBUTE by Werner Lampert (teNeues £45, 480 pp) MOST glossy coffee-table books feature subjects such as naked models or luxurious home interiors, so this book on cows is a welcome — and surprising — alternative. Sustainability expert Werner Lampert and his team tracked down the most beautiful and rare cattle and captured them in their natural habitats, from Austria to India, and have displayed the pictures alongside quotes and poetry. A wonderful book.
