Animals as Persons : Essays on the Abolition of Animal Exploitation Paperback / softback
by Gary Francione
Paperback / softback
- Information
Description
A prominent and respected philosopher of animal rights law and ethical theory, Gary L.
Francione is known for his criticism of animal welfare laws and regulations, his abolitionist theory of animal rights, and his promotion of veganism and nonviolence as the baseline principles of the abolitionist movement.
In this collection, Francione advances the most radical theory of animal rights to date.
Unlike Peter Singer, Francione maintains that we cannot morally justify using animals under any circumstances, and unlike Tom Regan, Francione's theory applies to all sentient beings, not only to those who have more sophisticated cognitive abilities.
