Summary:
Since its original publication in 1975, this groundbreaking work has
awakened millions of people to the existence of "speciesism"—our
systematic disregard of nonhuman animals—inspiring a worldwide
movement to transform our attitudes to animals and eliminate the
cruelty we inflict on them. In Animal Liberation, author Peter Singer
exposes the chilling realities of today's "factory farms" and
product-testing procedures—destroying the spurious justifications
behind them, and offering alternatives to what has become a profound
environmental and social as well as moral issue. An important and
persuasive appeal to conscience, fairness, decency, and justice, it
is essential reading for the supporter and the skeptic alike.
