Rating: Summary: animal rights Review: "You Can Save the Animals" is not just a book about how disgusting animal abuse is, but about how you can work to end it. The tips in here truly are simple. They can help you learn how to buy products NOT tested on animals, how to stop eating other creatures, how to know which health charities make medical advances and help people WITHOUT harming animals, how to live in peace with wildlife and take the best possible care of your own animals, boycott cruel "sports" and circuses, cut dissection in schools and so much more. There is a mixture of terribly sad but true stories, touching poems, facts, statistics, and hard-to-fight arguments in here that make it a treasure trove for those who want to do some good in the world. And, anyone who thinks PETA is just a silly, sentimental group whose ideals will not work should read this. It just might change their minds.
Rating: Summary: A vitally important book for all who care about animals Review: A wonderful, important book letting us in on the exploitation and abuse animals endure and what we can do about it. This book tells us how we can put our own compassionate natures to work.
Rating: Summary: Shocking. Review: After reading this book, I feel happy knowing that by being a vegetarian, I'm not contributing towards the pain and suffering of animals. At times, this book was really hard to read. It's hard to imagine that people can be so thoughtless and cruel to animals. I think that everyone should read this book because it will give them a better understanding of things like the circus, fur & leather, fishing and many other things involving animals.

Rating: Summary: Animal Friendly Enlightenment Review: As an active animal advocate always looking for help on animal cruelty awareness, the tips give concrete advice and scripting to those who want to help educate the public. One can begin education within the home then spiral publicly outward. It's never too late to start.As Berkeley Breathed has been quoted in this book, "Thankfully there are many options to reduce the suffering of our critter friends. Find them within these pages."
Rating: Summary: I'm glad I read it! Review: I am so glad I read this book. Even before I read it, I beleived in Animals' Rights. Now, I understand more clearly and have a more definite outlook of how humans treat animals. After I read the book, I immediately went to their web page and joined PETA. It made a difference in my life, maybe it'll do the same for you.
Rating: Summary: You Can Save the Animals Review: I couldn't put this book down. I'm not normally a big reader. I took my kids to the library and happened to see it...thought I would skim it over. Not only did I read it cover to cover IN ONE DAY...I'm taking ACTION. I love animals and thought I was pretty compassionate. Nothing could have prepared me for what I was about to read. I can't believe, especially in the U.S, that animals are treated in such a manner. You HAVE GOT to read this book. It will change how you live!
Rating: Summary: Full on Ideas and very interesting. Review: I would recomend this book to everyone that loves animals. You will learn so much and look at animals in a new light.
Rating: Summary: Bill Mahar Likes It; I Read It; So Should You Review: I've been watching Politically Incorrect (Bill Mahar's show) for years, and I heard Bill Mahar talking about writing the introduction to this book, so I had to read it. I was not disappointed. This is the best nonfiction book I've read since When Elephants Weep. If you share your life with a dog, cat, or other animal, READ THIS BOOK. If you consider yourself to be an animal lover, READ THIS BOOK. Ingrid Newkirk's reputation as a compassionate and committed individual is earned. Reading this book, I learned that she is also an engaging writer and a brilliant story teller. I could not be more pleased.
Rating: Summary: Outstanding portrayal of cruelty to animals in 'medicine' Review: Ingrid Newkirk's books are honest and straightforward accounts of the shameful way animals are treated in so -called 'science and medicine'. The medical community may dismiss the agony of innocent creatures; however, this does not make the situation disappear. The animal research industry spends over two billion dollars a year in useless funding of repetitive experiments. There is little concern for the suffering of these innocent creatures and still less in results for humans. Ingrid has no funding to worry about; therefore, she can be honest in speaking out about shameful and outdated animal research.
