In this landmark work of animal rights activism, Carol J. Adams - the bestselling author of <i>The Sexual Politics of Meat </i>- explores the intersections and common causes of feminism and the defense of animals. <i>Neither Man Nor Beast </i>explores the common link between cultural attitudes to women and animals in modern Western culture that have enabled the systematic exploitation of both. A vivid work that takes in environmental ethics, theological perspectives and feminist theory, the Bloomsbury Revelations edition includes a new foreword by the author and new images illustrating the continuing relevance of the book today.
