  • 内容简介
  • 动物有权利吗?人类对动物负有义务吗?动物的精神生活是什么样的?我们应如何理解它们的福利?这些是当代关于动物权利争论的核心问题,它们所涉及的不仅仅是哲学思考,还包括人们日常生活中的行为。本书从历史和现实的角度,结合各社会组织和个人对待动物的方式,对这些问题进行了深入探讨,呼吁人们对动物权利问题给予关注并进行反思。

    This volume provides a general overview of the basic ethical and philosophical issues of animal rights. It asks questions such as: Do animals have moral rights? If so, what does this mean? What sorts of mental lives do animals have, and how should we understand welfare? By presenting models for understanding animals' moral status and rights, and examining their mental lives and welfare, David DeGrazia explores the implications for how we should treat animals in connection with our diet, zoos, and research. Animal Rights distinguishes itself by combining intellectual rigor with accessibility, offering a distinct moral voice with a non-polemical tone.
