  Animal rights sounds like a modern idea, but in fact - for over three millennia - philosophers, theologians, and political theorists have grappled with the question of our obligations toward animals. This anthology illuminates the complex evolution of moral thought regarding animals. It includes writings of authors from ancient Greece onwards.
