Leahy Publisher: Routledge Print ISBN: 9780415103169, 0415103169 eText ISBN: 9781134961214, 1134961219 Edition: 1st Pages: 304 Copyright year: 1991 Format: PDF Available from $ 55.95 USD SKU 9781134961214 The Western world is currently gripped by an obsessive concern for the rights of animals - their uses and abuses. In this book, Leahy argues that this is a movement based upon a series of fundamental misconceptions about the basic nature of animals. This is a radical philosophical questioning of prevailing views on animal rights, which credit animals with a self-consciousness like ours. Leahy's conclusions have implications for issues such as bloodsports, meat eating and fur trading. Additional ISBNs 9780415103169, 9780415035842, 0415103169, 0415035848
