{"product_id":"emotion-in-farmed-animals-vicki-hutton-9781032855844","title":"Emotion in Farmed Animals: Ethical Challenges for Animal Welfare","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe emergence of scientific data confirming the capacity of nonhuman animals to feel what is happening to them and experience positive and negative emotions has created an uncomfortable moral dilemma for many humans. To meet demand for animal products in the 21st century, millions of animals are confined and suffer in industrial farm settings.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledging that a sense of helplessness to end this entrenched suffering on such a large scale can lead to inertia, this book instead seeks to bring change through stories of individual animals now living on farmed animal sanctuaries. These rescued animals have narratives that reveal them as individuals with emotional capacity and a future. Each chapter looks at a particular species' entwined history with humanity, as well as the biological and neurological structures that unequivocally confirm their ability to experience positive and negative emotions. This aspect is brought to life through the stories of individual animals living the good life after rescue and rehabilitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFarmed animals all have stories to tell but few get the chance to do so; this book amplifies the voices of those who have been able to reclaim basic rights in a human-dominated world with their stories providing insight into the uniqueness of every pig, cow, bird, rabbit and more intended for our plates and others for companionship or sheer joy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of interest to those studying or working in animal ethics, welfare and law; veterinary science; running a farmed animal sanctuary; or simply seeking to understand more about the animals with whom we share this planet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Vicki Hutton\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032855843\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032855844\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/12\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 276\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.69d","brand":"Vicki Hutton","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48442950648063,"sku":"9781032855844","price":180.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5c87e3ac-d517-40af-bc9c-e40bdebb11b6.jpg?v=1777200838","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/emotion-in-farmed-animals-vicki-hutton-9781032855844","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
