Reviews

Clearly developed and cogently argued, Before the Law puts existing formulations on the defensive while at the same time challenging them to respond to what is in essence a very straightforward but pressing question: Have we really begun to think through what 'animal life' means or to deal with the consequences of such questioning? (David Wills, University at Albany, SUNY)
