This book, more than any other shook the foundation of my perspective on animal suffering and enlightened me to the suffering we all cause to non-human animals every day. Singer shows the reader what harm is being done and that doing no harm is not simply a matter of continuing the comfortable pattern of thoughts and behaviors that are the majority in human societies.
Singer's rational and utilitarian approach is the perfect antidote to both irrational and reactionary arguments against the validation of this suffering and also the stereotype of vegans and those in favor of animal rights as overly sentimental animal lovers. His writing is precise, his examples measured and his arguments never pedantic or repetitive. Read More: >>More Details |

This book is an exceptional resource for people who want to help prevent animal abuse. Mark Hawthorne offers clear, concise actions we can take in our every day lives that really do make a difference. And he reminds us that we don't have to sacrifice ourselves to the cause to be effective. In fact we are better advocates if we don't.

In this day and age, and especially in this country, where the words "freedom" and "terrorism" have become inextricably linked, "Terrorist or Freedom Fighters, Reflections on the Liberation of Animals" is a sobering reminder of who it is that has never been free and never will be free as long as human ignorance and greed exists.
I probably like many thousands or even millions of people are aware of the atrocities committed on animals, but who always kept those thoughts buried because our culture believes that humans have dominion over the animals. Dominion maybe, but with that power comes an incredible responsibility to care for them and see that they are treated with respect and compassion. Certainly the mere fact of being a meat eater or wearing any ... Read More: >>More Details |

I've always been curious about the animal liberation front and whether you agree or disagree with their tactics, it's still an interesting read.
It's a very unlikely story. A cop "turning to the other side" for the good of animals. I highly recommend that you check this book out for yourself. >>More Details |

Ethics and the Beast: A Speciesist Argument for Animal Liberationby: Tzachi Zamir August 27, 2007 Search: animal liberation |

|
This is a delightful little book, which covers a great deal of ground in a small space and with utmost clarity and simplicity of style. I should at once qualify that last phrase as meaning that the book would be simple and clear to someone who is at ease reading analytic philosophy. The book's methodology is another attractive feature for its relative novelty, for the author minimizes the importance of defending some supreme principle of morality in favor of arguing on the basis of widely shared assumptions about right and wrong. This is definitely a selling point for a work than deals with a topic of urgent practical importance, like this one on the human treatment of other animals, since there isn't going to be any agreement about the supreme principle of morality any time soon.

Free the Animals! : The Untold Story of the U.S. Animal Liberation Front and Its Founder, "Valerie"by: Ingrid Newkirk 1992-07 Search: animal liberation |
||

Before I read this book, I knew very little about the ALF (Animal Liberation Front). I assumed that they must have been a radical, "terrorist-like" organization. After reading this book, however, I gained a much greater understanding and appreciation for what the ALF is, and what they do for animals. This fast-paced book (I could hardly put it down!) tells the story of how ordinary people wanted to make a difference in the lives of many helpless and defenseless animals who have been imprisoned in our country's laboratories. I felt a deep connection to the founder of the American ALF, Valerie. She, and her associates (Josh, Bear, and Edna) are truly American heroes. They all had the courage to stand up to the many shameless institutions that support needless animal suffering. This book could ... Read More:
