Beyond the law: Agribusiness and the systemic abuse of animals raised for food or food production

David J. Wolfson

4.9/5 (23548 ratings)

Description:The author, David J. Wolfson, is a Wall Street attorney and an animal advocate. In Beyond the Law, Wolfson reveals the discrepancy between how the laws of the United States define "cruelty to animals" and how these laws define and interpret cruelty to farmed animals--those unfortunate beings cursed with being raised for their flesh, milk, and eggs. If a practice, however inhumane, can be economically defended as a standard agricultural practice, such as the debeaking of chickens and turkeys, then it isn't deemed "cruel" under the current system. The federal Animal Welfare Act excludes farmed animals from oversight, and the federal "Humane Methods of Slaughter Act," which applies to cattle, pigs, sheep and horses, is not enforced by the Department of Agriculture; moreover, it excludes all birds, so that 98 percent of all animal slaughtered in the United States are not even mentioned.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
