Morality's Progress: Essays on Humans, Other Animals, and the Rest of Nature

This volume is the summation of nearly three decades of work by a leading figure in environmental ethics and bioethics. The 22 papers are diverse, but together tell a unified story about various aspects of the morality of our relationships to animals and to nature. Jamieson's direct and accessible essays aim to convince sceptics that thinking about these relations offers great intellectual reward, and his work here sets a challenging, controversial agenda for the future.
