Written by Catherine Grant. Published in Canada in association with New Internationalist Publications Ltd. by Between the Lines, 2006. Description: |
You might think that the protection of animals rights is a
modern, western concern. In fact people all over the world and down the ages
have cared what happens to animals, and not just the cute animals. Today animals need protecting more than ever. Some are bred for laboratories, for zoos or hunting. Others are reared intensively on farms. And those out there in the wild are loosing their habitats to logging and oil exploration. The No-Nonsense Guide to Animal Rights explains the key issues, charts the growth of the animal rights movement and looks at the welfare and protection laws. And it includes a practical day-to-day guide to what you can do to minimize exploitation. "The No-Nonsense Guide to Animal Rights traces the origins of the movement, explains the ways in which animals are used and abused, and ultimately shows why animal liberation is human liberation." Ingrid E. Newkirk, founder of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) |
