The slow progress of the legislation has finally resulted in the introduction of the two main criminal statutes affecting animals, the Animal Welfare Act 2006 and the Dangerous Dogs Act 1991. These two statutes account for almost all offences of animal abuse in every conceivable form relating to the duty of owners and their concurrent liability and responsibility.   A Practical Approach to Animal Welfare Law is designed to be informative and interesting to a broad, lay audience. It covers all aspects of those two Acts as they affect animals in our care. This book analyses the law relating to the criminal responsibility of owners and their duty of care for the welfare of their animals including injuring and killing them. The prosecution of offenders is investigated through the enforcement powers of the inspectors and the consequent sentencing by the courts. In doing so it deals with all manner of animal abuse as well as dangerous dogs and dangerous people.   The relevance of each Act to the various authorities is analysed, providing a practical guide for people involved in various everyday activities with animals and their behaviour. This book is an essential reference source for those whose work involves animal law – including academics, legal practitioners, local authorities and the police. Equally it will be a valuable source for those working in animal related areas such as breeding, exhibitions and the rights and welfare of animals by charitable organisations and sanctuaries.   A Practical Approach to Animal Welfare Law concludes with an analysis of the role and status of animals in English Law. There is a unique discussion on reform and the future of animal welfare and animal rights. That analysis applies to many jurisdictions on a national and international level, particularly in relation to common law countries.   This is no staid law book. The warmth and compassion of the author shines through the text, as he engages the reader in this difficult subject through case reports, stories, examples, analysis and discussion. Creating an exceedingly useful, insightful and interesting resource for a broad range of animal experts, workers and owners.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49583183659281,"sku":"GOR013555742","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49735896563985,"sku":"NGR9781910455807","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53231006089489,"sku":"GOR011772413","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1910455806.jpg?v=1768995358"},{"product_id":"animals-in-law-book-noel-sweeney-9781872724096","title":"Animals-in-Law","description":null,"brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"- \/ - \/ -","offer_id":50526333370641,"sku":"","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50526333731089,"sku":"GOR013985752","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":52902678135057,"sku":"NGR9781872724096","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1872724094.jpg?v=1751026964"},{"product_id":"albatross-book-noel-sweeney-9781872724423","title":"Albatross","description":"Albatross also has a few new poems reflecting recent changes and a classic analysis of our perennial quest in 'Searching for a dodo justice Soul'. That is an analysis  of the notion that only humans have a soul. Hence animals are born and live and die with the burden but without the benefit of a soul. Yet the proof for and against the concept whether it relates to animals or humans is placed under the microscope for any discerning reader.     Albatross by the author is a hard-hitting book which covers the connection between racism and sexism and speciesism in relation to our ecology and the environment.   Together the anvil striking poems and tough calling-down prose encapsulate the practice and use in all aspects of our animal abuse. The subjects run the gamut suffered by our subjects from abattoirs to zoos, from trophy hunting to killing kangaroos and from fast fading gorillas to the appearance of serial killers.     The poetry is wide-ranging from slavery to wife-selling covering every related subject in between on the widespread legal discrimination within our society towards animals. Each one defines what animals need to survive on their planet.    Albatross shows the ones who fall at our feet as well as those we choose to wear  and eat. The poetry of our legal animal slavery is compared to how we have treated others who are vulnerable too in the graphic connection between racism and sexism and speciesism. In doing so we see the pale imitation of camouflaged cruelty in the pursuit of our conspiratorial truth towards injustice.   Animal Rights percolates through each poem so every word is weighed for the benefit of those who are denied the use of them. For we ensure all animals are hamstrung by the lack of a human tongue.                         Albatross concerns the final frontier of our last moral crusade of the 21st century.  Animals must be members of rather than numbers in our society where they are mere statistics of misery. Their fate and fortune and future in our scheme is the broken-winged theme of Albatross.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51167504367889,"sku":"GOR014191085","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":51216323772689,"sku":"GOR014097454","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1872724426.jpg?v=1751418651"}],"url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/collections\/author-books-by-noel-sweeney.oembed","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
