The Passing of the Pink Elephant: A Textbook of Psychopathic Zoology is a book written by Frank Vincent Waddy and published in 1919. The book is a humorous and satirical take on the field of zoology, exploring the strange and unusual behaviors of animals from a psychological perspective. The title of the book refers to a fictional species of elephant that is pink in color and exhibits bizarre behaviors, such as standing on its head and singing operatic arias. Waddy uses this fictional creature as a metaphor for the unusual and abnormal behaviors that he observes in various animals throughout the book.The book is divided into chapters, each focusing on a different animal or group of animals. Waddy examines the behavior of these animals in detail, drawing on his own observations as well as scientific research to provide insights into their psychological states. Throughout the book, Waddy employs a humorous and irreverent tone, poking fun at both the animals themselves and the field of zoology as a whole. He also includes numerous illustrations and cartoons to further emphasize his points.Overall, The Passing of the Pink Elephant is a unique and entertaining take on the study of animal behavior, offering readers a fresh perspective on the subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
