Great text...some really important points..for example
"Recently, though, many in the scientific community have begun to rethink the human/animal divide. 'All vertebrates,' says Gay Bradshaw, an animal psychologist at Oregon State University's environmental sciences graduate program, 'are basically functioning with the same mind and psyche.' The 'differencing model' of human identity, she argues, doesn't just mistakenly characterize the natural world as something for humans to rule and exploit; it also inhibits scientific understanding."
