500 "With a new preface by the author."
520 The groundbreaking book that challenged the ethics of our
treatment of animals and jump-started the animal rights
movement́⁰₄with a new preface by the author First
published in 1975, Animal Liberation created a sensation
upon its release, shaking the world's philosophical and
animal-protection circles to their cores. Now, forty years
later, Peter Singer's landmark work still looms large as a
foundational and canonical text of animal advocacy.
Arguing that all beings capable of suffering deserve equal
consideration, Singer contends that the only justifiable
treatment of animals is that which maximizes good and
minimizes suffering. In examining the cruelty of factory
farming and the exploitation, both commercial and
scientific, of laboratory animals, he identifies a kind of
"ethical blindness" and calls for political action. A
moral wake-up call from one of the most influential and
controversial ethicists of our time, Animal Liberation
tackles an emotionally charged social issue with a
compelling rational argument in a rousing and riveting
read. This ebook features an illustrated biography of
Peter Singer, including rare photos from the author's
personal collection.
