After a quick glance at attitudes to animals in various traditions around the world, the author goes on to discuss approaches in the modern Western tradition, focussing on moral philosophy and then applying the ideas to various practical matters such as animal husbandry, pets and zoos, and animal experimentation.

Interesting but mainly serves as an introduction to one perspective rather than the idea in general.

My novel BEFORE YOU KNOW KINDNESS was published in 2004. I view it as a novel about animal rights and (yes) a dysfunctional family. But today a reader reminded me that page one describes the horrors a bullet inflicts on any animal…including humans.

KathyWheeler I bought this one because I loved the title and the cover. Now I need to read it. 😊 12mo

Animal Liberation | Peter Singer
Pickpick

A wonderfully written comprehensive account of the arguments against using and abusing non human animals. A book that appeals to reason rather than emotions and that employs emotive language minimally. The philosophy visited throughout the book is made accessible and digestible to all. I am in awe of this book and of Peter Singer‘s writing and dedication to the cause of animals rights. I hope enough of us will have the open mind to read it.

Meet Sputnik, one of our first guinea pig squad of four - one neutered boy and three girls.
Yes, she was named after the tagged book. After all, that's what she was - Sputnik, a sweetheart... 😊
Don't get me wrong, I have loved all our pets - love animals in general - but with some you have a connection that's even more special. She was my sweetie - the calmest, friendliest, cutest one and the haven of tranquility of the troop🧡

Slowly managing to retrieve my pictures from my broken laptop's hard drive.

Meet Nifl, our late darling snowflake aka teddy hamster. ❄️❄️❄️
The name came from Niflheim, the snowy realm from Norse mythology.
He was an absolute darling.
