"Animal Crisis presents the reader with the most thorough
research into the ways in which animal lives are understood. The arguments
are illustrated with stories of individual animals or groups of animals who
have been cruelly treated. It is a must for all those who want to understand
why we should treat animals ethically."
~ Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN
Messenger of Peace
"So radical, so morally unsettling, that you have to take your courage in
both hands to read it. But read it you should."
~ Raimond Gaita, author of The Philosopher’s Dog
"A deeply moving book that calls on us to reconsider our relationship to
animals and to other humans and ecosystems we depend on."
~ Sally Haslanger, author of Resisting Reality
