Animal Theology

“Linzey is Britain’s foremost animal rights theologian, and his carefully constructed argument is a striking challenge to the way we live and think.”–Walter Schwarz, The Tablet “Combines a level of scholarship and thought with passion and imagination, sensitivity and humor that could well change the reader’s way of looking at the world.”–Bishop John Austin Baker, Church “An excellent book. Clearly written, logically organized, and exhibits sound scholarship. What Christianity can offer to the animal rights debate more than anything else is what Linzey calls the ‘generosity paradigm.’”–Daniel A. Dombrowski, author of Hartshorne and the Metaphysics of Animal Rights
