Sommario/riassunto: | ""This text provides the reader with multiple views on animal welfare and proves to be a fascinating read. There are a variety of viewpoints included in the text and thus avoids the pitfall of providing only one or two opinions on, what has proved to be, a controversial subject. ...While it should be considered required reading for students in the agricultural field, it will also prove to be thought-provoking to anyone interested in the subject of animal welfare and its impact on society.""-Brandy Tabor, CVT, VTS (ECC), The VIN Book Reviews, VSPN.org, January 2013""Implementation of welfare in p |
