Breve Encyclopedie Du Monde 3

The place given to the animal in a society reveals how the people of that society want to live in the world. Animal experimentation, anti-specism or bullfighting are the subjects of complex debates for the definition of man as a species and as a gifted race. In this third volume of Cosmos, Michel Onfray tackles the profound philosophical stakes that our approach of the animal kingdom poses, and in particular of animals' suffering. In a civilization where the physical and moral pain of earth has been played by Christianity as both ineluctable and holy, Michel Onfray's work of reflection and outpouring has been liberated to reestablish himself within the dynamics of life in a harmonious cosmos.
