Animal Liberation Now
Autor Peter Singeren Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 mai 2024
'Probably the single most influential document in the history of ... animal welfare' Guardian
'Raises ethical questions that every human being should take to heart' Yuval Noah Harari
In 1975, Animal Liberation started a worldwide movement when it revealed the abuse of animals in factory farms and laboratories. In the fifty years since, science has further vindicated Peter Singer's arguments about animal sentience, and the book has helped change the minds of millions. But the situation for animals has in many ways grown worse.
This revised edition, of which about two-thirds is entirely new, documents these and other developments, such as the impact of meat consumption on climate and the spread of dangerous new viruses. It refines its arguments in light of new evidence, equips the reader with fresh tools and advice, and shows us all the road ahead.
'Animal Liberation Now will motivate a new generation of readers who are resolutely committed to creating a just society for all' Joaquin Phoenix

'If I have to pick the book that had the most impact on me, I would say Peter Singer's Animal Liberation' Jane Goodall
'One the most important books of the last 100 years' Ecologist

Recenzii
"In its first incarnation, Animal Liberation became the indispensable foundational text for the movement whose name it bore. In its new, updated, and wholly rewritten form, Animal Liberation Now provides not only a survey – sober, authoritative, and chilling – of what goes on today in the factory farms and research laboratories of the world, but also a guide, written with the honesty and philosophical depth characteristic of all of Peter Singer’s work, through the complexities of the modern debate on animal rights." — J.M. Coetzee, author of The Lives of Animals and Disgrace
“Singer’s documentation is unrhetorical and unemotional, his arguments tight and formidable, for he bases his case on neither personal nor religious nor highly abstract philosophical principles, but on moral positions most of us already accept.” — New York Times Book Review
"This book is a must . . . not just for every animal lover but forevery civilized reader." — Cleveland Amory
“A most important book that will change the way many of us look at animals—and, ultimately, at ourselves.” — Chicago Tribune
“This book can’t help but make you think twice about whether or not animals have rights. It is so lucid and smart and thoroughly researched, without a hint of hysteria. I couldn’t put it down.” — Rick Moody, author of The Ice Storm
