In clear and accessible language, Gruen provides a survey of the issues central to human-animal relations and a reasoned new perspective on current key debates in the field. She analyses and explains a range of theoretical positions and poses challenging questions that directly encourage readers to hone their ethical reasoning skills and to develop a defensible position about their own practices. Her book will be an invaluable resource for students in a wide range of disciplines including ethics, environmental studies, veterinary science, women's studies, and the emerging field of animal studies and is an engaging account of the subject for general readers with no prior background in philosophy. 410 0$aCambridge applied ethics. 517 3 $aEthics & Animals 606 $aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects 606 $aAnimal rights 615 0$aAnimal welfare$xMoral and ethical aspects. 615 0$aAnimal rights. 676 $a179/.3 686 $aPHI000000$2bisacsh 700 $aGruen$b Lori$01146445 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910822334303321 996 $aEthics and animals$93954680 997 $aUNINA
