Synopsis:

An updated edition of the groundbreaking study of animal rights describes the shocking abuse of animals--including laboratory experimentation, the fur industry, and product testing procedures--and argues that those who oppose human suffering must also oppose inflicting suffering on animals. Reprint.

Review: "It galvanised a generation into action. Groups sprang up around the world, equipped with a new vocabulary, a new set of ethics and a new sense of mission...Singer's book is widely known as the bible of the animal liberation movement." (Independent on Sunday)

"A reasoned plea for the humane treatment of animals that galvanised the animal-rights movement the way the Rachel Carson's Silent Spring drew activists to environmentalism." (New York Times)

"Important and responsible...Everyone ought to read it." (Richard Adams)

"Probably the single most influential document in the history of recent movements concerned with animal welfare" (Guardian)
