Book summaryPluhar defends the view that any sentient being--one capable of caring about what happens to him or herself--is morally significant, a view that supports the moral status and rights of many nonhuman animals. Confronting traditional and contemporary philosophical arguments, she offers in clear and accessible fashion a thorough examination of theories of moral significance while decisively demonstrating the flaws in the arguments of those who would avoid attributing moral rights to nonhumans. Media reviews"Evelyn Pluhar has pushed this debate to the next level, challenging her readers to refute her arguments or to change their attitudes. She is moved as much a passion for reason as by the plight of animals; and indeed it is the sheer irrationality of conventional attitudes toward animals that strikes some as humanity's worst moral failing."
