Political Animals and Animal Politics Reviews

This collection of articles is the first edited book attempting to get to grips with it, and because of this it is a welcome addition to the literature. ... The editors are to be congratulated, then, on putting together this collection. ... All in all, then, this book is a useful first-step in articulating the field of animal politics. (Robert Garner, Environmental Values, Vol. 25 (4), August, 2016)
