Reviews

'I have been challenged and excited - at the same time! - by the original insights contained in some of the chapters of Law and the Question of the Animal' - John Mancy, Editor for Australian Animal Protection Law Journal 'Yoriko Otomo and Ed Mussawir's Law and the Question of the Animal: A Critical Jurisprudence is an innovative collection of essays.' - Maneesha Deckha, University of Victoria, Canada for Social & Legal Studies (Vol. 23(1) 131-148, 2014) 'Law and the Question of the Animal has value for the original way it positions the concept animal within so many diverse human legal contexts. Perhaps pragmatists, or event activists, will find food for thought in the way these papers address the binary jursiprudential catagorizations that humans use to frame our interactions with animals.' - Darren J. Furey, Queen Elizabeth II Library, Memorial University of Newfoundland
