Kritik
"Award-winning Kendra Coulter has done it again! This remarkable and provocative book asks readers to rethink some of the most taken-for-granted ideas about human-animal interactions. To make her compelling argument, Coulter draws widely from the social sciences, feminist political economy, ecology, and animal studies. Her courageous text challenges us to both expand our theoretical analyses, and to practice inclusive, ethical interspecies solidarity." -Meg Luxton, Professor, School of Gender, Sexuality, and Women's Studies, York University, Canada

"Kendra Coulter deftly uses the central concept of work to examine connections and differences within and across species. After a careful and detailed consideration of how humans and other animals meet, work, and act together, she advances a thesis that is ultimately hopeful - an interspecies solidarity that might just have the potential to bring real change for all. A must-read for scholars of human-animal studies." -Nik Taylor, Associate Professor, School of Social and Policy Studies, Flinders University, Australia

"This book is unique, interesting, and important. Laudably, Kendra Coulter helps us to think more deeply and broadly about definitions of work, and about the past, present, and future of all of our working relationships." -Susanna Hedenborg, Professor, Department of Sport Science, Malmö University, Swedenmehr
