By exploring the ethical differences between humans and animals, Animalkind establishes a middle ground between egalitarianism and outright dismissal of animal rights.
- A thought-provoking foray into our complex and contradictory relationship with animals
- Advocates that we owe each animal due respect
- Offers readers a sensible alternative to extremism by speaking of respect and compassion for animals, not rights
- Balances philosophical analysis with intriguing facts and engaging tales
