Rethinking the American Animal Rights Movement

International author gives an original perspective on the events of the twentieth century. Since she's finishing her own research, she's up to date on the most important arguments in the field, both of which give users an original look at the material.
Goes beyond just reciting the events to talk about the deeper issue of human-animal relations, which is very big right now, and informs all of the animal rights courses out there.
Points students in the direction of work they should read and people they should know, so is a good starting place for further research.
Situates the Animal Rights Movement, which can seem like a fringe movement, within the broader sweep of American social movements in the twentieth century.
