Robert Garner

Animals, Politics and Morality

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Our treatment of, and attitudes towards, animals vary from respect and concern at one end of the scale to cruelty and neglect at the other. Acts of violence to animals are countered by acts of violence on the behalf of animals. This book examines these apparently contradictory responses.
