An extraordinary book which has had extraordinary effects ... It galvanised a generation into action
Independent on Sunday
One the most important books of the last 100 years. It expands our moral horizons beyond our own species
Ecologist
Probably the single most influential document in the history of ... animal welfare
Guardian
Raises ethical questions that every human being should take to heart
Yuval Noah Harari
The indispensable foundational text for the movement, new and updated with the honesty and philosophical depth characteristic of all of Singer's work
J. M. Coetzee
A reasoned plea for the humane treatment of animals that galvanised the animal rights movement the way the Rachel Carson's Silent Spring drew activists to environmentalism
The New York Times
If I have to pick the book that had the most impact on me, I would say Peter Singer's Animal Liberation, since I instantly became a vegetarian after reading it
Jane Goodall
Peter Singer may be the most moral person on the planet. If his ruthlessly consistent altruism makes the rest of us shuffle our feet in discomfort, or even noisily disrupt his lectures, that's all the more reason to read this book
Richard Dawkins
Widely recognized as the foundational text within the animal liberation movement, Peter Singer's Animal Liberation opened my eyes to the radical philosophy that all animals are worthy of equal consideration. Singer's latest, Animal Liberation Now, will motivate a new generation of readers who are resolutely committed to creating a just society for all
Joaquin Phoenix
For those with an interest in culture, ethics and animals ... Animal Liberation Now is essential reading
The Conversation
There's a reason Animal Liberation hasn't gone out of print since the Seventies - [Singer] makes for a persuasive argument, and one that's now better suited to our times
Independent
[This] book is a reminder that plain, well-sourced facts, starkly presented, often speak louder than philosophical arguments ... Animal Liberation and Animal Liberation Now owe their undeniable power to the same basic source: to know the facts is to see at once that change is needed
Nature
Animal Liberation Now … is rightly a classic: not merely a book but … a catalyst to a movement ... [it] remains radical
