God, Humans, and Animals

Ethics, Culture & Social Issues

“A welcome contribution to the literature concerning the moral significance of animals. Wennberg writes from a Christian perspective, relating the moral status of animals first to God and then to humans on the one hand and to the environment on the other. Animals have moral significance in their own right, not just as they contribute to the environment or to human welfare. All value, of course, is within a theocentric framework. Wennberg is to be commended for bringing to his task both scholarship and fresh insight.”
