Abstract

Proposes a re-interpretation of animal identity which is strengthened by a deplopyment of Wittgenstein's immensely influential philosophy of language. Concludes that much of the current talk about animals is dangerously anthropomorphic and defends bloodsports, furs, zoos and the use of animals for food and scientific research.

Abstract

Leahy argues that the animal rights movement is based upon a series of fundamental misconceptions about the basic nature of animals--beliefs which define them rationally, emotionally, and morally in too human terms. Leahy gives particular emphasis to the writings of Ludwig Wittgenstein and his highly influential philosophy of language, and

This book focuses on the nature and characteristics of open source geospatial (OSG) software.
