Les animaux ressentent-ils de l'injustice, de la compassion, du regret ou de la honte ? Peuvent-ils compter ou faire des projets ? Que signifie pour eux être apprivoisés ou domestiqués ? Que sait-on de leur sommeil, de la manière dont ils vieillissent ou de leur façon d'apprendre ? Pour répondre à ces questions, le forestier Peter Wohlleben s'appuie sur son incroyable sens de l'observation et sur les dernières découvertes scientifiques.

La place accordée à l'animal dans une société révèle comment l'homme veut vivre au monde. L'expérimentation animale, l'anti-spécisme ou encore la tauromachie nourrissent des débats aux ramifications complexes pour la définition de l'homme en tant qu'espèce et en tant qu'être doué de morale. Dans ce troisième volume de Cosmos, Michel Onfray aborde les enjeux philosophiques profonds que pose notre approche de l'animal, et notamment de sa souffrance.

Le best-seller de New-York Times pour la première fois en français en format audio ! Est-ce que c'est vrai qu'on est ce que l'on mange ? Depuis des milliers d'années on considérait l'homme comme le sommet de la chaîne alimentaire et que le régime carnivore était le seul style d'alimentation le plus sain. Au 21ème siècle nous avons accès aux produits alimentaires non seulement de notre région, mais aussi à ceux du monde entier, même aux plus exotiques. Le repas est devenu une nouvelle vogue, un nouvel moyen d'expression de soi. Mais en ayant la position dominante dans la nature, sommes-nous suffisamment responsables devant elle ?

En Libración animal, Peter Singer denuncia el «especismo» (el prejuicio de creer que existe una especie, la humana, superior a todas las demás) y expone la escalofriante realidad de las granjas industriales y los procedimientos de experimentación con animales, echando abajo las justificaciones que los defienden y ofreciendo alternativas a un dilema moral, social y medioambiental. Este libro es un persuasivo llamamiento a la conciencia, la decencia, y la justicia y una lectura esencial tanto para el ya convencido como para el escéptico.

Si les animaux ne peuvent nous parler, les récentes recherches démontrent qu’ils ont tout de même une activité mentale intense. En fait, l’animal a des habiletés cognitives qui lui permettent de s’adapter et de s’ajuster à l’univers unique dans lequel il vit. Et c’est en tentant de comprendre l’intelligence propre à chaque espèce que nous pourrons arriver à vraiment aimer et respecter les animaux qui nous entourent.

Birds. Over 9,000 species, the most widespread of all animals: on icebergs, in the Sahara or under the sea, at home in our gardens or flying for over a year at a time. Earthbound, we can only look and listen, enjoying their lightness, freedom and richness of plumage and song. David Attenborough has been watching and learning all his life. His classic book, now fully updated with the latest discoveries in ornithology, is a brilliant introduction to bird behaviours around the world: what they do and why they do it.

Considerable progress in how society regards animals has occurred since that time. However, shelters continue to euthanize companion animals, extinction rates climb, and wildlife “management” pits human interests against those of animals.
