Opis

Are animals part of the moral community? To what extent, if at all, do they have moral rights? Is it permissable to eat them, hunt them, or use them for scientific research? Taylor traces the background of these debates from Aristotle to Darwin and sets out the views of numerous contemporary philosophers.
