In 'Animal Liberation', Peter Singer presents a profound and provocative analysis of animal rights. Since its original publication in 1975, this book has inspired a global movement that seeks to transform our perception and treatment of animals, denouncing 'speciesism' and exposing the cruelty in factory farms and animal experimentation. Singer argues that the ethical principle that underlies equality among humans must be extended to animals, offering alternatives to a moral, social, and environmental dilemma. This Spanish edition from Editorial Trotta is an essential read for anyone interested in animal ethics and animal rights.
Peter Albert David Singer is an Australian moral philosopher who is Emeritus Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics at Princeton University. Singer's work specialises in applied ethics, approaching the subject from a secular, utilitarian perspective. He wrote the book Animal Liberation (1975), in which he argues for vegetarianism, and the essay "Famine, Affluence, and Morality", which argues the moral imperative of donating to help the poor around the world. For most of his career he was a preference utilitarian. He revealed in The Point of View of the Universe (2014), co-authored with Katarzyna de Lazari-Radek, that he had become a hedonistic utilitarian.
