Ebook: With Dogs at the Edge of Life

Dayan makes a powerful case for questioning what we think of as our deepest-held beliefs and, with dogs in the lead, unsettles the dubious promises of liberal humanism. She takes politics and animal studies in a new direction—one that gives us glimpses of how we can think beyond ourselves and with other beings. Theoretically sophisticated yet aimed at a broad readership, With Dogs at the Edge of Life illuminates how dogs—and their struggles—take us beyond sentimentality.

Rethinking what it means for dogs and humans to live together in the twenty-first century, taking us beyond sentimentality and into a form of thought that sees the world in a radically different way.
