They might think twice before buying some of the products that represent a torturous existence and painful and prolonged death for animals. May 02, Tifinie rated it really liked it. Sep 21, Claire rated it it was amazing. It was one of those books you just don't want to put down.

It followed a woman who was a police officer on her journey through the realization that the world can be a horrible place for animals, focusing on laboratory animals, and her actions taken to do the most she could to alleviate that. It's got elements of romance, drama, mystery, action, and horror real horror for the animals in labs. If you're squeamish about animal cruelty, you can still read this book.

The descriptions are scary but they aren't like watching footage or looking at photos. You might be intrigued and want to read up more on the stories in this book.

I actually watched footage based on a few of the raids that were described in this book- one called 'Unnecessary Fuss' https: Also watched 'Breaking Barriers' https: Let me say that I knew that animal testing was a horrific thing And I realized how many of the animals used in labs were former pets, picked up at pounds. Animal testing labs make puppy mills look like heaven, folks. I'll just say that. These raids were very important turning points in the animal rights and animal cruelty movements. Some of the raids even attracted attention of Jane Goodall who spoke out against the primate testing facilities in one of the chapters.

Mar 05, Catherine Kelaher rated it it was amazing Shelves: I loved this book so much, I bought the audio book as well so I can listen to it whilst I work. It tells the story of the controversial Animal Liberation Front. I think it should be made into a movie, because it combines action, emotions and hard hitting reality. One woman enters into an underground camp to train to be a part of the animal liberation front and she transforms from an everyday woman into a freedom fighter for animals. We also read about the first action packed raids, where innocent I loved this book so much, I bought the audio book as well so I can listen to it whilst I work.

We also read about the first action packed raids, where innocent animals are freed by these modern day heroes. Whilst you will learn more about animal rights, this book is not a list of facts. It is a riveting read. For well-researched pro-animal readers like myself, there is less space devoted to the philosophy of ALF and what I find difficult to read descriptions of the sickening conditions under which "lab animals" are kept and, instead, much more information about the planning and execution of direct actions themselves. While it is told in the style of a story, rather than a recitation of facts, it is quite clearly inten Great history of the Animal Liberation Front's ALF beginnings in North America.

While it is told in the style of a story, rather than a recitation of facts, it is quite clearly intended to reveal early strategies and precautions. I would go as far as describing it as a "how-to" guide for those interested in how both small and large scale actions were successfully pulled off. I felt more inspired reading Free the Animals than hopeless. It is crucial to remember that this is the 20th anniversary edition.

Meaning the events and direct actions described occurred in the s and s. It would be fantastic to learn more about how ALF strategies have accommodated to 21st century technology that is surely being used to shield and protect the cruelty of 21st century vivisectors. As I mentioned above, the book itself does not spend a significant amount of time "justifying" the actions of the ALF. However, as ALF has worked to do for animals caught in this rotten system, the book "humanizes" ALF members themselves. Perhaps for non-animal sympathizers, this is the books greatest strength.

Like so many others I can only hope that we will look back at our treatment of animals with the same disgust as most of us now look back on slavery, or the Nazi's treatment of Jewish citizens. But, always remember, before the abolition of slavery, there were abolitionists.

They broke the law, stole "property," and freed those who neither had a voice, nor whom could free themselves. They risked everything to follow their conscience. They simply could not wait for the rest of the world to catch up. ALF members have been branded terrorists for saving the lives of innocent, sentient beings- non-human animals with the same capacity for fear, pain, suffering, and love as human animals.

As Darwin said "we may differ in degree, but not in kind. They are living their truth and Free the Animals provides a glimpse into why and how they achieve this goal. Oct 12, Kelly rated it liked it Shelves: While I understand why some people resort to direct action, I'm unsure as to whether it actually hurts the movement in the long run. Having said that, I found this book to be inspirational, but overall rather bland.

It's a bit long, but goes quickly, as its writing style is rather juvenile. The story is a moving one, but ultimately I didn't really gain anything by reading it; it's comprised mostly of anectdotes rather than providing a comprehensive overview of animal experimentation to be fair, it doesn't claim to do so. This book, in my opinion, would make an appropriate gift for a high-schooler who's interested in animals but hasn't yet adopted a humane read: I would describe the book's reading level as young adult, and it should be enough to inspire an AR ethic in any concerned animal lover another good book for this purpose would be "Slaughterhouse" by Gail Eisnitz.

However, don't buy this book if you're looking for anything more. Sep 23, Chris Michael St. Prince rated it it was amazing. No book I've ever read has made my heart race so much.

Moby - Animal Rights (20th Anniversary Fan Extended Edition)

The stories are invaluable, the key players are inspiring, and Newkirk is good to remind us of the positive outcomes of animal raids. There is still so much work to do, which was a daunting moment when I finished the book. I have read many animal rights books, and I often look at my library and ponder which book I would choose as a good introduction to an animal rights neophyte -- I think this is the one.

I wish I could thank ALF members in person for their important and brave work. Feb 10, Elizabeth Vasquez rated it liked it Recommends it for: Activism transcends to 'justified' criminal acts. Disgusting and interesting details of inhumane treatments and training techniques for activists.
