Nordic Animal Law
Animal Law is a subject which is growing rapidly. The world faces severe threats in the forms of climate crisis, biodiversity losses, pandemics, and zoonosis, and ethical considerations in relation to law and the protection of sentient beings other than humans, is of pressing importance.

The book is a unique and valuable a reference textbook for legal scholars, judges, animal protection authorities, lawyers, and others students and researchers interested in the topic.

Saving Animals
A fascinating and unprecedented ethnography of animal sanctuaries in the United States In the past three decades, animal rights advocates have established everything from elephant sanctuaries in Africa to shelters that rehabilitate animals used in medical testing, to homes for farmed animals, abandoned pets, and entertainment animals that have outlived their “usefulness.” Saving Animals is the first major ethnography to focus on the ethical issues animating the establishment of such places, where animals who have been mistreated or destined for slaughter are allowed to live out their lives simply being animals. Based on fieldwork at animal rescue facilities across the United States, Elan...
We Are Best Friends: Animals in Society
Friendships between humans and non-human animals were once dismissed as sentimental anthropomorphism. After decades of research on the emotional and cognitive capacities of animals, we now recognize human–animal friendships as true reciprocal relationships. Friendships with animals have many of the same characteristics as friendships between humans. Both parties enjoy the shared presence that friendship entails along with the pleasures that come with knowing another being. Both friends develop ways of communicating apart from, or in addition to, spoken language.
The Pornography of Meat: New and Updated Edition
For 30 years, since the publication of her landmark book The Sexual Politics of Meat, Carol J. Adams and her readers have continued to document and hold to account the degrading interplay of language about women, domesticated animals, and meat in advertising, politics, and media. Serving as sequel and visual companion, The Pornography of Meat charts the continued influence of this language and the fight against it. This new edition includes more than 300 images, most of them new, and brings the book up to date to include expressions of misogyny in online media and advertising, the #MeToo movement, and the impact of Donald Trump and white supremacy on our political language. Never has this book--or Adams's analysis--been more relevant.

Alice a Bruxelles
Nel 1910 le scuole rurali private della Montesca e di Rovigliano, fondate nelle tenute umbre dei Baroni Franchetti, partecipano all’Esposizione Universale e Internazionale di Bruxelles dove si raccontano per la prima volta. L’iniziativa è frutto della lungimiranza di Alice Hallgarten che, filantropa e visionaria, mira a suscitare interesse internazionale verso un innovativo progetto pedagogico volto a contrastare l’analfabetismo e la miseria che segna la vita delle famiglie dei mezzadri locali. Nella capitale belga, i quaderni e i disegni di questi ‘figli delle campagne’, che il primo giorno di lezione fanno fatica persino a «dire il loro nome», meriteranno una medaglia d’oro ...
