Mark Rowlands’ "Animals Like Us" explores the ethical implications of our treatment of animals. Rowlands challenges the deeply ingrained instrumental view of animals, arguing they possess intrinsic value. He contends that as sentient beings, biologically linked to humans, animals have interests that demand consideration.
The book applies principles of justice to advocate for animal rights, scrutinising practices like vegetarianism, animal experimentation, zoos, and hunting. Rowlands invites readers to reconsider their perceptions, urging recognition that animals are not mere tools but beings deserving of moral consideration. The book compels us to confront our indifference to animal suffering within a consumerist society and to contemplate the ethical consequences of our choices.
