More about the book

The book challenges the notion that animal consciousness is a definitive factor in determining their moral status. Peter Carruthers contends that there is no objective truth regarding animal consciousness and asserts that this concept holds little scientific or ethical importance. He suggests that while empathy for animals can stem from their mental states, it should not depend on unverified beliefs about their consciousness.
