Opis

This book explores lesbian, gay, bisexual, queer, trans, and non-binary people's relationships with animal companions. Drawing on the authors' research across psychology, media, gender studies, and sociology, the book combines theory and evidence to frame the queer entanglements of human and animal lives as a menagerie of interweaving experiences.

Recenzje

'In their magnificent transdisciplinary collaboration, the authors advance the fields of Animal Studies and Gender and Sexuality Studies. This exceptional book reveals the intimate and structural processes of making queer multispecies kinship through our entanglements, sentiment, and dedication.' Lisa Jean Moore, Distinguished Professor of Sociology and Gender Studies, State University of New York
