Values in Conflict: Reflections of an Animal Advocate offers an
account of changing and conflicting social values regarding man’s role
in the natural world. Author Georges Dupras compels us to think about
man’s role in animal suffering and leads us to the inescapable
conclusion that we must speak and act for those who have no voice.
Dupras
presents a pragmatic approach to peaceful coexistence with nonhuman
species, without sacrificing idealism. The humane field has developed
from a nonprofit mission to a profession over the past forty years
addressing questions, comments, and issues that are foremost in the
minds of the general public. While highlighting opposing social values,
Dupras encourages those who feel marginalized due to their lack of
professional training and offers advice to help them find their right
path.
Dupras also chronicles the evolution of the animal
rights movement, one that uniquely transcends differences among species.
This thorough review and reflection on both Dupras’s personal
experiences and of animal advocacy in general seeks to address
questions, comments, and issues that are foremost in the minds of the
general public, in hopes that future generations will recognize animals
for their intrinsic value, equal in their own rights.
