In this all-new volume in the State of the Animals series, internationally known scholars and distinguished experts examine the challenges facing farm animals, shelter animals, and wildlife worldwide from religious, legal, educational, and strategic perspectives.
The State of the Animals II: 2003 is an encyclopedic compilation of excellent essays that consider all aspects of the numerous ways in which nonhuman animal beings (aka animals) and human animal beings interact.

Building on the success of The State of the Animals: 2001, State of the Animals II: 2003 takes the reader into some novel—as well as some familiar—areas of human-animal relationships. It contains an engaging mix of solid review articles as well as exciting new research. Its accessible style, combined with thorough referencing, make this volume useful for both academics and anyone seeking to expand his or her understanding of these topics.
