"Peter Singer s writing changed my life. I have waited for this book for a long time, a quarter of a century in fact. What an exquisite collection of fine writers with compelling philosophies, philosophies that translate into positive ways to change society and one s own daily life for the better. Ingrid Newkirk, President, People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA)
A survey of the new wave of philosophy, science, and action in the cause of animals. The theoretical essays give a masterly overview of the field, while the essays on animal–rights activism are engaging and full of good sense. J. M. Coetzee, Winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature, 2003
Take your fork out of that animal on your plate, and sit down in a comfortable chair and read this book instead. Essential reading for anyone who cares deeply about the lives of animals. Jeffrey Masson, author of The Pig Who Sang to the Moon
"I welcome the era when overwhelming, unconscionable cruelty is not longer the outstanding feature of people′s interactions with animals. The books under review facilitate that era′s arrival." Peter S. Wenz, Social Theory and Practice
