The book rigorously examines the ethical dilemmas surrounding animal husbandry, particularly questioning the morality of killing animals that have lived enjoyable lives. It delves into utilitarian moral theory, highlighting the differing assumptions and implications of two distinct versions of utilitarianism. Through this exploration, it presents unexpected conclusions about the treatment of animals and the ethics of their care and slaughter, challenging conventional views on animal welfare.
