Description
Sentience and Animal Welfare by Donald M. Broom explores the concept of sentience in animals, examining its significance for animal welfare debates. The book delves into the latest research and empirical evidence to answer questions about animal suffering and consciousness. Broom investigates the development of sentience, from when humans became sentient as a species, to how it has evolved over time. He also explores brain complexity, defining aspects such as consciousness, memory, and emotions. A chapter on ethical decisions, including animal protection and experimentation, makes this book an invaluable resource for researchers, students, and veterinarians. This comprehensive guide provides an engaging and informative read for those interested in understanding the complexities of sentience and its implications for animal welfare.
