ABOUT THE BOOK:
In this book Andrew Linzey provides a new Christian credo for animals. Our
treatment of animals is a gospel issue, he contends, because those individuals and
institutions that could have become the voice of God's most vulnerable creatures have
instead justified cruelty and oppression.
Linzey offers an inspiring personal account of the gospel truths that have sustained his commitment to the cause of animals for more than twenty-five years. In doing so he makes a strong and moving case for a radically reformed faith, one that allows the gospel of the crucified Christ to interpret the world of innocent suffering.
"Andrew Linzey's theology is one of the most passionate and provocative
visions of Christian faith today. His work on animals is surely among the most
creative theology being written."
~ Reviews in Religion and Theology
"Andrew Linzey, long recognized as the world's leading theologian of animal
rights, has written his best book yet. Indeed, this is his most personal and passionate
work because it is his most theological.....He is guided here not by the agenda of the
animal rights movement but by an evangelical proclamation of the good news for the whole
world, including all of God's creatures. This is pastoral theology at its best, an aid to
all Christians who seek a more spiritual understanding of animals. This book should win
him many new readers, and it should awaken the church to an ethical issue that cries out
for Christian compassion."
~ Stephen H. Webb, author of On God and Dogs
