ЭNussbaum is going a different way, taking aim at the entire system of moral thought that, consciously or not, has led us to treat living things as objects ... Make no mistake, this is a serious work of philosophy – and probably not most people's idea of an ideal beach read, with its earnest interrogation of Kantian ethics and utilitarianism. That being said, the book does tell the sad stories of specific animals ... Some readers may view these tales as tacky emotional vibrato in what is otherwise a scholarly read. Nussbaum defends herself, making the point 'extinction never takes place without the suffering of individual creatures' ... Justice for Animals is a timely and weighty reminder that a positive future is possible and worth fighting for."
