Description
This definitive history and analysis of the animal rights movement chronicles its development from associations of kindly pet lovers concerned with the animal 'welfare' to passionate groups of people fighting for animal 'rights.' Seeking to understand the broad appeal of the movement, the authors examine the sources of the belief that concern and respect for human beings should extend to animals, and they chronicle the movement's transformation, as its demands have escalated from reform to abolition and its tactics have shifted from humane education to radical acts of protest.
