Table of Contents
Google Preview: Animals and War: Confronting the Military-Animal Industrial Complex is the first book to examine how nonhuman animals are used for war by military forces. Each chapter delves deeply into modes of nonhuman animal exploitation: as weapons, test subjects, and transportation, and as casualties of war leading to homelessness, starvation, and death. With leading scholar-activists writing each chapter, this is an important text in the fields of peace studies and critical animal studies. This is a must read for anyone interested in ending war and fostering peace and justice.; Dedication Foreword Acknowledgments Introduction: The Military-Animal Industrial Complex Chapter One: Animals as Vehicles of War Chapter Two: Front Toward Animals: Animal Exploitation in U.S. Military Medical Training Exercises Chapter Three: Nonhuman Animals as Weapons of War Chapter Four: War: Animals in the Aftermath Chapter Five: Animals at War Chapter Six: The Future of War and Animals Conclusion: A Critical Animal and Peace Studies argument to ending all wars; Google Preview content
