Many philosophers, including Aquinas, Locke, Schopenhauer and Kant,
have assumed that there is a link between cruelty to animals and
violence to people. During the last 40 years, evidence for this
view has steadily accumulated as a result of statistical,
psychological, and medical investigations, and there is now a
substantial body of supporting empirical evidence. "The Link
Between Animal Abuse & Human Violence" brings together
international experts from seven countries to examine in detail the
relationships between animal abuse and child abuse, the emotional
development of the child, family violence, and serial murder. It
considers the implications for legal and social policy, and the
work of key professionals. Sections include critical overviews of
existing research, discussion of ethical issues, and a special
focus on the abuse of wild animals. This book is essential reading
for all those who have a stake in the debate, either because their
academic work relates to the issues involved, or because their
professional role involves contact with the abused or the abusers,
both human and animal, including child care officers, community
carers, law enforcement officers, health visitors, veterinarians,
anti-cruelty inspectors, animal protection officers, social
scientists, lawyers, psychologists, and criminologists. This is the
most up-to-date, authoritative, and comprehensive volume on the
link between animal abuse and human violence.
