Domestic Animals and Leisure - (Leisure Studies in a Global Era) by Neil Carr (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

This volume offers both an insight into the current state of research on domestic animals in leisure and a lens through which to begin to chart the future of research in this field. All of the contributions to the collection are underpinned by ongoing debates about human-animal relationships and the rights and welfare of the latter.
