Ralph R. Acampora is associate professor of philosophy at Hofstra University. He is co-editor of A Nietzchean Bestiary and a member of the editorial board for Anthrozoos.
"All philosophers interested in animal ethics should read this
thought-provoking book."
--Environmental Ethics
"In this intellectually adventurous and scrupulously argued book,
Ralph Acampora takes it as his aim to vitalize the Anglo-American
debate on the ethics of transhuman contacts with a bracing
injection of modern European thought."
--J. M. Coetzee, winner of the 2003 Nobel Prize in Literature
"Reading Corporal Compassion soon went [from being] a
fascinating journey to a gratifying learning experience. I
recommend the book to all philosophers from an analytic background
who would like to view familiar terrain through a new set of
lenses. Acampora writes beautifully though exotically, and before
too long one greatly appreciates--and even enjoys--the gestalt
shift this book engenders."
--Bernard Rollin, Anthrozoos
