Book SynopsisAn interdisciplinary compendium of worldwide animal rights issues
Trade Review "Even when faced with urgent human problems, we should not overlook the issue of justice to animals. . . . This Global Guide reflects a growing worldwide sensitivity to animals and a developing sense that--as a matter of justice--they deserve our compassion and respect. It has my warm support."--Archbishop Desmond Tutu, from the book's foreword
"This book provides an excellent reserve of examples that will be useful in a variety of pedagogical context."--
Modern Believing "This broadly appealing multidisciplinary work will interest scholars in the sciences and humanities as well as general readers committed to animal welfare issues. While it draws attention to many contemptible forms of animal abuse, it also offers glimmers of hope by highlighting the positive work of numerous animal advocates who work to protect our nonhuman cohabitants of planet Earth."--Marc R. Fellenz, author of The Moral Menagerie: Philosophy and Animal Rights
"An excellent and trusted resource."--
The Vegan "An intriguing array of eye-opening information, covering economic, legal, religious, ecological, moral, and biomedical viewpoints."--
