When Richard Ryder coined the term 'speciesism' over two decades
ago, the issue of animal rights was very much a minority concern
that had associations with crankiness. Today, the animal rights
movement is well-established across the globe and continues to gain
momentum, with animal experimentation for medical research high on
the agenda and very much in the news. This pioneering book - an
historical survey of the relationship between humans and non-humans
- paved the way for these developments. Revised, updated to include
the movement's recent history and available in paperback for the
first time, and now introducing Ryder's concept of 'painism',
Animal Revolution is essential reading for anyone who cares about
animals or humanity. Dr Richard D. Ryder is a psychologist,
ethicist, historian and political campaigner. He is also a past
chairman of the RSPCA. His other books include Victims of Science:
The Use of Animals in Research, The Political Animal: The Conquest
of Speciesism and Animal Welfare and the Environment (editor). As
Mellon Professor, he taught Animal Welfare at Tulane University.
