The Animals Issue : Moral Theory in Practice, Paperback / softback Book

The Animals Issue : Moral Theory in Practice Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Do animals have moral rights? In contrast to the philosophical gurus of the animal rights movement, whose opinion has held moral sway in recent years, Peter Carruthers here claims that they do not.

He explores a variety of moral theories, arguing that animals lack direct moral significance.

This provocative but judiciously argued book will appeal to all those interested in animal rights, whatever their initial standpoint.

It will also serve as a lively introduction to ethics, demonstrating why theoretical issues in ethics actually matter.
