A worldview of animal law

This book is a survey of the way different countries and cultures treat animals under the law. Given the breadth and scope of the legal treatment of animals around the world, it presents only selected issues and laws. The book provides any reader with a solid understanding of the varied treatment and approaches taken by countries around the world in connection with animals used in every area. Thiis book is split into subject areas tied to the different ways we interact with animals in society, with a focus on comparing the laws in different countries in the current era. Its format and wide coverage make it interesting for readers in any country who want to know about this area of the law, whether for personal, educational or professional reasons. Unlike many casebooks on the market, this is not a law school text, and not a comprehensive survey of one specific country's laws; rather, it provides a more readable and wider view of the compelling issues that arise regarding the integration of animals into society. --Book Jacket.
