The Beastly Truth. The animal rights movement says eating meat is murder, pets are slaves and lab animals are prisoners. But science writer and part-time farmer
Stephen Budiansky challenges this view. Using new archaeological evidence and animal behaviour studies, he argues that domestication was not an act of human exploitation. It was a natural process - a brilliantly successful evolutionary strategy which has allowed humans and the animals which get along with them to flourish. Budiansky says: "Obviously we need to think about the way we use animals and use them humanely, but the idea that we should not use them at all is, I believe, based on ignorance."
