"Animal Genocide and its Aftermath presents a thoughtful and engaging account of how the killing and the extinction of nonhuman animals can and should be thought of as genocide, thus bringing into play more complex sets of historical, political, and legal concepts and experiences." * Rick De Vos, Curtin University "This book represents a brilliant piece of detailed, historical research which challenges and demands so much of the reader through destruction of the easy and comfortable acceptance of the human actions that result in animal extinction, together with an analysis of the different cultural representations of those actions that led to the genocide." * Robert Paddle, Australian Catholic University.
