Synopsis
Environmental concerns and the complex issues and dilemmas raised by animal rights pose fundamental questions for philosophers. The essays in this welcome collection put environmental thinking into the broader context of philosophical thought. Distinguished contributions from key thinkers, including Mary Midgley, Stephen Clark, J.Baird Callicott, Holmes Rolston, Dale Jamieson and John Haldane, focus on our attitudes to animals and the environment as critically determined by deeper philosophical concerns. Timothy Chappell's useful introduction provides a guide to the issues and dilemmas and links the diverse arguments and themes. Examining whaling, animal captivity, and specicism amongst other topics, this book adds substantially to the contemporary debate in environmental philosophy.

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. This book has rubbing and surface scratching to both covers, very minor shelfwear to the edges and corners of the covers and textblock, gently bumped corners, uneven sunfading on the front cover and spine (likely there was another object sitting on top of this book, the fading is in an L-shape to the top left of the front cover and spine), and very faint smudging to the back cover, otherwise this book is in very good condition with crisp, unmarked pages, a tight binding, and a clean, glossy cover.
