Animal Rights cover

This comprehensive and diverse anthology, the only one of its kind, illuminates the complex evolution of moral thought regarding animals and includes writings from ancient Greece to the present. Animal Rights reveals the ways in which a variety of thinkers have addressed such issues as our ethical responsibilities for the welfare of animals, whether animals have rights, and what it means to be human.

The anthology adds a much-needed historical depth to current controversies. BMS Book News: Interaction This volume well serves the purposes that the editors set for it. -- David Corner Between the Species
