Ramsay Wood

Ramsay Wood is an author best known for two novels which embed ancient animal fables derived from The Jatakas Tales and The Panchatantra into modern frame-story narratives. His Kalila and Dimna – Selected Fables of Bidpai (Vol 1) was published by Knopf in 1980. Wood believes that these fables provide one of the earliest secular examples of what Lawrence Lessig calls Remix Culture.
