In Search of Consistency: Ethics and AnimalsBrill Academic, 2006At the intersection of animal rights, environmental ethics, and religious studies, In Search of Consistency systematically examines the work of influential scholars Tom Regan (animal rights), Peter Singer (utilitarian ethics), Andrew Linzey (theologian), and Paul Taylor (environmental ethics), then explores ethics and animals across six world religions (Indigenous faiths, Hinduism, Buddhism, Christianity, Judaism, and Islam). This monumental, ground-breaking volume not only introduces key thinkers and revolutionary ideas of the past, but also explores "the sanctity of life," exploring an intriguing moral theory, "The Minimize Harm Maxim," rooted in the time-honored moral ideals.
