To put animals and nature, the Earth's life community, first, and
not just our own species, is a new way of thinking. It is a major
evolutionary step for Homo sapiens. This book takes the reader
beyond the polemics of animal rights and the imperatives of
environmental protection into the deeper realms of animal
consciousness, the 'empathosphere.' and the healing powers of
nature where the call for humane planetary stewardship and
enlightened self-interest converge. Written by a veterinarian with
doctoral degrees in medicine and animal behavior, and with a
lifetime of advocating animal and environmental protection, this
book addresses the dictum of Socrates that "a life unexamined is a
life unlived." Exploring values, perceptions and beliefs that are
embedded historically in our culture from various religious,
political, economic and social roots, Animals and Nature First
shows why and how this new way of thinking and relating to other
living beings is ultimately enlightened self-interest. It is an
integral aspect of our recovery, economically, socially,
politically and spiritually. Animal well-being and the health of
the natural environment are inseparable from the health, well-being
and the ultimate fate of humanity.
