Hunting - Philosophy for Everyone presents a collection of readings from academics and non-academics alike that move beyond the ethical justification of hunting to investigate less traditional topics and offer fresh perspectives on why we hunt. The only recent book to explicitly examine the philosophical issues surrounding huntingShatters many of the stereotypes about hunting, forcing us to rethink the topicFeatures contributions from a wide range of academic and non-academic sources, including both hunters and non-hunters
