The Great Ape Project by Peter Singer
A compelling and revolutionary work that calls for the immediate extension of our human rights to the great apes.
The Great Ape Project looks forward to a new stage in the development of the community of equals, whereby the great apes-chimpanzees, gorillas, and orangutans-will actually receive many of the same protections and rights that are already accorded to humans.
This profound collection of thirty-one essays by the world's most distinguished observers of free-living apes make up a uniquely satisfying whole, blending observation and interpretation in a highly persuasive case for a complete reassessment of the moral status of our closest kin.
Paola Cavalieri is the editor of the international philosophy journal Etica & Animali and lives in Milan. She is the author of The Animal Question: Why Nonhuman Animals Need Human Rights, and she edited The Great Ape Project: Equality Beyond Humans with Peter Singer.
