<DIV>For too long people have believed there is no middle ground between being vegans who swear off all animal products and being unthinking carnivores. No more, says author Marc Bekoff, the leading expert on animal emotions. In <I>The Animal Manifesto</I> he shows that improving our treatment of animals is a matter of rethinking our many small daily decisions. Demonstrating that animals have a rich range of emotions, and outlining our pressing environmental realities, he offers ten compelling reasons for changing the way we treat animals &#8212; those we raise for food, those we use in labs, those that are wild and endangered. The result is an inspirational, informative guide for all who care about life in its many forms.</DIV>
