The second edition of The Animal Ethics Reader is the most current and comprehensive anthology of readings on the subject of animal ethics. Whilst keeping the best of the previous edition, the editors have updated readings to reflect ongoing developments and emerging issues like rehabilitation of oiled wildlife, human elephant interactions, and animal consciousness and emotion.
Classic and contemporary readings are arranged thematically, carefully presenting a balanced representation of the field as it stands, and include selections from leading experts in the field. Each chapter is introduced by the editors and study questions feature at the end.
The second edition also contains a new foreword by Bernard Rollin.
The first edition of The Animal Ethics Reader was an important contribution to the development of courses in animal ethics. This new, improved edition will make an even more important contribution. Dale Jamieson, Professor of Environmental Studies and Philosophy, New York University
The Animal Ethics Reader is required reading for students and scholars in Human-Animal Studies and for interested individuals who want to deepen their understanding of our complex and contradictory relationship with animals. Kim W. Stallwood, Animals and Society Institute
The Animal Ethics Reader offers an invaluable source, and establishes animal ethics and animal law philosophy as a serious academic subject. Erwin Lengauer and Regina Binder, Vienna inter-university research group on animal ethics.

This ambitious anthology is a welcome resource for the study of the ethical issues of human interactions with other animals. The editors have provided a volume that covers a wide and diverse range of topics and points of view. Anthrozoos, 18 (4) 2005
