Passionate Animals - Emotions, Animal Ethics, and Moral Pragmatics

Informationen zum Autor By Mara-Daria Cojocaru Klappentext To solve the problems of factory farming and animal experimentation, what we need is not new philosophical knowledge but a systematic exploration of how to put what we know into practice. This book argues for combining pragmatism and vision, reason and emotions, and morality and politics to foster significantly better human-animal relations.
