THE PROTECTION OF
animal rights is more than a modern, western
phenomenon. In fact, there is a long history of
concern for animals around the world, and it is
this concern that underlies today's animal rights
movement. The No-Nonsense Guide to Animal
Rights explains the key issues, charts the
growth of the movement, looks at welfare and
protection laws, and makes connections between
animal rights and other justice struggles. A
practical day-to-day guide is included to help
readers understand what they can do to minimize
exploitation.

environmental justice.
