“A well-executed book that successfully combines innovative primary research with deep philosophical reflection on human–animal interactions and the evolution of animal welfare policy, with particular emphasis on the role of devolved institutions and civil society in the UK and India. Strongly recommended.” Alistair Cole, Sciences Po Lyon
