Animals as Religious Subjects is a timely work ... Divided into four sections, [ it] addresses the issue of nonhuman religious subjects from the perspectives of religious thought, symbolism, enquiry, and ethics, thus offering a rich tapestry of scholarly responses from numerous disciplines to the question what role animals might play as religious subjects. Herein lies the strength of the book ... [ It] will undoubtedly prove important for all those who consider animals central to any religious enterprise. -- Oliver Putz, Santa Clara University * Philosophy, Theology & the Sciences * The title of this book may well surprise some readers who have never thought of animals as having any religious connotations. However, it is a groundbreaking book as it presents a wealth of perspectives from a wide variety of writers. -- D Gareth Jones, University of Otago, New Zealand * Theological Book Review *
