Attitudes to Animals provides a foundation that the reader can use
to make ethical choices about animals. It will challenge readers to
question their current views, attitudes, and perspectives on
animals and the nature and development of the human-animal
relationship. Human perspectives on the human-animal relationship
reflect what we have learned, together with spoken and unspoken
attitudes and assumptions, from our families, societies, media,
education, and employment. This thought-provoking book delves into
what it means to be human, what it means to be animal, and the
nature of the relationship between them. This is accomplished with
philosophical and ethical discussions, scientific evidence, and
dynamic theoretical approaches.
