       Edition -- Chapter 1. All Animals Are Equal or why the 
       ethical principle on which human equality rests requires 
       us to extend equal consideration to animals too -- Chapter
       2. Tools for Research no, it's not all about saving human 
       lives -- Chapter 3. Down on the Factory Farm or what 
       happened to your dinner when it was still an animal --

       Man's Dominion a short history of speciesism -- Chapter 6.
       Speciesism Today objections to Animal Liberation, and the 
       progress made in overcoming them 
520    Singer returns to the major arguments and examples of his 
       seminal 1975 work and brings us to the current moment. 
       This edition, revised from top to bottom, covers important
       reforms in the European Union, and now in various U.S. 
       states. On the flip side, Singer shows the impact of the 
       expansion of factory farming due to demand for animal 
       products in China. Singer describes how meat consumption 
       is taking a toll on the environment, and factory farms 
       pose a profound risk for spreading new viruses even worse 
       than COVID-19. Animal Liberation Now includes alternatives
       to what has become a profound environmental and social as 
       well as moral issue. Framed as an appeal to conscience, 
       fairness, decency, and justice, it is intended for the 
       supporter and the skeptic alike.  -- Provided by
