Recenzii
"This collection is a worthwhile read for those concerned about animal ethics. As Chloe Taylor writes, "how we treat the dead has direct implications for how we treat the living"." -- Kelsi Nagy, Journal of Animal Ethics
"The inspiring and inclusive ways in which the book challenges readers are enhanced by the chapters dealing with animal death in less predictable settings, and by its artistically oriented interrogations ... no reader of the book need feel excluded from this at once descriptive and aspirational conception of life." -- Sam Cadman, Australian Book Review
