Are animals there to be cuddled and protected? Slaughtered and
eaten? Sacrificed to the gods? In After Noah, Dan Cohn-Sherbok and
Andrew Linzey show how Jews and Christians have often failed to
take account of the power of their traditions to promote a more
compassionate and sensitive regard for animals. It argues that the
way we treat animals is a benchmark for the kind of society we are,
and that in recognising the true -- and biblically based -- value
of animals, we liberate ourselves from the idolatry which is to be
found at the heart of much contemporary spirituality. After Noah is
a pioneering work, defined to become essential reading, not just
for students of Jewish and Christian ethics but for all people of
faith who believe that, in devaluing animals, we ultimately devalue
ourselves and out own souls.
