Book Reviews of In Defense of Animals: The Second Wave
Book Review: A must for animal wellwishers
Summary: 5 Stars
Peter Singer explores the realms of animal cruelty and discusses the hypocritical attitude of many who believe themselves to be pro animal rights. I myself am an animal lover and vegetarian who thought she had heard it all but was amazed to read many of Singers' exposes. This book opened my eyes towards my then slightly hypocritical attitude towards animal rights. It is a must for anyone contemplating vegetarianism or simply exploring the world of animal cruelty. This truly shows how one person can make a difference despite adversity and struggle, a sensible and informative account of one mans' struggle against the disbelievers.
