<p>Man is the Cruelest Animal features four main themes:  History, Cruelty, Activism and Perspectives with each section comprised of four peer-reviewed essays. History describes the centuries-old animal protection societies that preceded the modern movement that emerged in the 1970s. Cruelty explains what drives activist campaigns against factory farming, vivisection and hunting.  Activism analyses the educational and intervention strategies and the varied tactics of animal activists in the USA, the UK and Australia. Perspectives  identifies  some of the conflicts involving counter  movements against the theory and practice of animal rights;  the prospect for achieving common cause in resolving the worst features of  human-animal interactions is also discussed.  The concluding section is in two parts: Part 1 focuses on Pandemics and Life Chances, a topic that is of obvious relevance  in the current era while Part 2 features an annotated guide to recommended reading on the four main themes covered in the book.</p>
