About the Book

We admire this book because Professor Herzog is thoughtful, rational, and often funny as he shows students how illogical they are in their relationships with animals. It’s not a polemic. It’s a book that fosters debate and conversation by asking deceptively simple questions:

• Does living with a pet really make people happier and healthier? 

• What can we learn from biomedical research with mice? 

• Who enjoys a better quality of life—the chicken on a dinner plate or a rooster who dies in a Saturday night cockfight? 

• Why is it wrong to eat the family dog? 



It’s already been adopted in a variety of courses from anthropology and composition to ethics.
