Why read it?

If you love animals I recommend you read Henry Mance's non-fiction book about how we see animals as commodities for our exploitation. Henry, a journalist at the Financial Times, explores the dilemmas us human are great at avoiding and at our amazing capacity for wilful ignorance.

This insightful and surprising book really does make you think that we should and could be doing so much better in terms of how we treat and live with animals.
