I was interviewed a few weeks ago by NRO’s John Miller about my forthcoming book, A Rat is a Pig is a Dog is a Boy. We discuss the difference between animal rights and animal welfare, human exceptionalism, the ongoing devaluation of human life, and about my friendship with novelist Dean Koontz, who very kindly wrote the preface. Check it out.
The book was supposed to be out today, but—as frequently happens in publishing—was delayed a few weeks. But if you are of a mind, you can pre-order here, with delivery to your mailbox circa Feb 15.
