Unsanctifying Human Life

by Helga Kuhse

Unsanctifying Human Life brings together some of Singer's best and most challenging articles from 1971 to present. The book includes early critiques of various approaches to philosophy and the role of philosophers, followed by controversial works on the moral status of animals, infanticide, euthanasia, the allocation of scarce health care resource, embryo experimentation, environmental responsibility, and reflections on how we should live.
