Description
This thought-provoking essay explores our relationship with animals and its implications for philosophy. Marta Segarra examines how human exceptionalism has given way to posthumanities, which challenge traditional notions of the human subject.
The author draws on various disciplines, including animal studies, gender theory, postcolonialism, ecocriticism, and queer theory, to consider the consequences of our interactions with animals for fields such as science, emotions, work, and health policy. By examining these intersections, Segarra sheds light on how we build our world.
This book is a valuable contribution to ongoing debates about human-animal relationships, history, politics, and knowledge. It offers new perspectives on ethics and invites readers to reconsider their assumptions about the boundaries between humans and animals.
