Some Quotes about the Book:
"A staggering investigation into the ethics of animal exploitation around the world, Bleating Hearts pulls no punches as it examines the many ways humans use and abuse our fellow creatures. Hawthorne artfully travels to the darkest corners of animal suffering, bringing to light not only the disturbing truth about people's mistreatment of nonhumans, but what we can do about it. Eloquently written and thoroughly researched, this doesn't just belong on every animal advocate's bookshelf — it deserves to be discussed and shared. This is a brilliant, powerfully persuasive book that will inspire you to make a difference."
— Ric O’Barry, founder of The Dolphin Project
"If there is a place in your heart for animals, this is an important book for you to read. But it is more than that. If you want to lift the veil of denial, so that you can make your life an effective statement of compassion, you'll find this book to be nothing less than extraordinary."
— John Robbins, author of The Food Revolution and Diet For A New America and co-founder of The Food Revolution Network
"An important, timely addition to unmasking the myth of the 'humane treatment' of nonhuman animals. Hawthorne's searing indictment is must reading for both those new to the animal rights movement and for seasoned animal rights activists."
— Tom Regan, The Case for Animal Rights and Empty Cages: Facing the Challenge of Animal Rights
