Why animals matter: animal consciousness, animal welfare and human well-being
Oxford: Oxford University Press (2012)
Abstract
In a world increasingly concerned with the human species and its future, Marian Stamp Dawkins argues that we need to rethink some of the fundamental questions regarding animal welfare. How are we justified in projecting human emotions on to animals? What kind of mental lives do they have? What can science tell us about their quality of life?
