From the reviews:
“The book helpful in the multiple overviews it provided of the major fault lines that exist in mainstream ethical theory. … for anyone who requires an accessible survey of recent ethical and political controversies in agriculture. … it is rich enough in detail and theoretical depth that I could also recommend it as a textbook for higher level university courses in fields that deal with such issues in greater detail. … to all those interested in the subject of the philosophy of technology … .” (James B. Gerrie, Journal of Agricultural and Environmental Ethics, Vol. 22, 2009)Editors and Affiliations
