Description: Cognitive Kin, Moral Strangers? Linking Animal Cognition, Animal Ethics & Animal Welfare by Judith Benz-Schwarzburg, Mark Kanak, Susana Monsó Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description In Cognitive Kin, Moral Strangers?, Judith Benz-Schwarzburg investigates whether non-human animals share complex socio-cognitive abilities like culture, language and theory of mind with humans. She questions our supposedly human uniqueness and explores how cognitive kinship matters for animal ethics. Publisher Description In Cognitive Kin, Moral Strangers?, Judith Benz-Schwarzburg reveals the scope and relevance of cognitive kinship between humans and non-human animals. She presents a wide range of empirical studies on culture, language and theory of mind in animals and then leads us to ask why such complex socio-cognitive abilities in animals matter. Her focus is on ethical theory as well as on the practical ways in which we use animals. Are great apes maybe better described as non-human persons? Should we really use dolphins as entertainers or therapists? Benz-Schwarzburg demonstrates how much we know already about animals capabilities and needs and how this knowledge should inform the ways in which we treat animals in captivity and in the wild. Author Biography Dr. Judith Benz-Schwarzburg is a Senior Researcher at the Messerli Research Institute, Vienna, who works and publishes at the intersection of animal cognition and animal ethics. She is currently leading a research group on animal morality. Details ISBN 9004358862 ISBN-13 9789004358867 Title Cognitive Kin, Moral Strangers?
