Comprehensive subject and author indexes provide additional avenues of access to entries.With over 1,300 annotated citations drawn from scholarly journals, popular magazines, monographs, books, newspapers, animal rights literature, and U.S. government publications, this bibliography will prove highly useful as a reference source to anyone interested in animals, animal rights and welfare, or the evolution and history of a controversial contemporary social reform movement.
