Howard Zinn, social activist and author of A People’s History of America

A splendid new series of pocketable guides to issue politics - rigorously clear.

The Guardian, London

The The No-Nonsense Guide to Animal Rights traces the origins of the movement, explains the ways in which animals are used and abused, and ultimately shows why animal liberation is human liberation.

The New Internationalist is exactly the sort of intelligent, committed and progressive publication which here at The Chaser, we strongly disapprove of.

You might think that the protection of animals' rights is a modern, western concern. In fact people all over the world and down the ages have cared what happens to animals, and not just the cute animals.

Today animals need protecting more than ever. Some are bred for laboratories, for zoos or hunting. Others are reared intensively on farms. And many of those out in the wild are losing their habitats to logging and oil exploration.

This No-Nonsense Guide explains the key issues, charts the growth of the animal rights movement and looks at the welfare and protection laws. And it includes a practical day-to-day guide to what you can do to minimize exploitation.

Diagrams, charts and graphs used throughout to illustrate key information.
