"Animal Sacrifices is a riveting volume.... This latest work carries on Regan’s high standard of scholarship and readability.... Lucid, accessible, and thought provoking. This book is really a page-turner, for ones curiosity is quickly piqued by the stands religions—which most of us only vaguely understand—have taken on this issue."
—Judge Lisa A. Richette, The Catholic Standard and Times
