Animal-Human Relationships: An Urgent Plea for Modernization
Briefly

Clive Phillips' book 'Towards an Ethical Approach to Animals' highlights the critical need for reevaluating our relationship with animals in light of their declining populations. As the first professor of animal welfare in Australia, Phillips combines historical and futuristic perspectives on animal ethics. This open-access book aims to raise awareness about the significant damage inflicted on wildlife and the unsustainable exploitation of animals for human benefits. Phillips’ work is positioned as essential reading across various disciplines, focusing on the ethical responsibilities humans hold toward animal life on Earth.
I want people to realise the immense damage we are doing to animal life on our planet. We're decimating our wildlife populations and using the land and resources for intensively managed animals exclusively for our benefit.
This historical and futuristic look at animal ethics is unique, making this book a thought-provoking read for all interested in areas of veterinary science, ethics and welfare.
