Readership: Students and scholars interested in religion and animal rights.
Stephen H. Webb, Associate Professor of Religion and Philosophy, Wabash College
"Thoughtful and reflective writing on our relationship with the animal world can be hard to come by, particularly among those writing from a specifically Christian perspective ... Stephen Webb's latest book is therefore a welcome contribution. It recognizes the theological differences between human beings and other animals, yet without reducing the relationship to a purely instrumental one ... Webb has written the best book we have on the subject." - Modern Theology
"The study is significant and original because it considers issues that have often been brushed aside ... an important starting point for further discussion of the theological meaning of pet relationships, and the implications of those relationships for the way we treat all animals and live in the world." - Anglican Theological Review
