Beasts of Burden: Animal and Disability Liberation Hardcover – Illustrated, March 7, 2017

this book literally changed how i view disability activism and animal rights activism in a way i have never experienced. i am a disabled vegan and yet i never knew how little i knew. this book is a great read and it references many books that also sound interesting. i will re read and i recommended it to my professors

I learned a lot from this book. It explores and overturns assumptions commonly made about disability in a sensitive manner. It is well written and very accessible. Though I ended up being not 100% sold on correlating animal and disability liberation (presented as the thesis of the book, per the subtitle), there is a lot to be gleaned from it, and I highly recommend it.

This book is tremendous. If you are the one who's looking for the entangled ties between animal rights and disability movements, you get to read this awesome work.

This book is incredibly insightful and captivating - I recommend it to anyone interested in learning more about animal & disability rights and their intersections !

I loved everything about this book. It’s well written, offers incredible insight... 10/10 would recommend.

Extremely well written and well argued. It has made me rethink my carnivorous ways! An important contribution to disability studies.

Well written, persuasive, and full of ideas that will stretch the mind and soul.

Powerful arguments, how speciesism and ableism intersect. Animals are viewed as "subhuman" and the disabled "sub-normal".

Absolute must read!!

Great book and great quality. Taylor asks us many important questions about ageism and specisism and reminds us the two aren't separable.

This is one of the most remarkable books I've read in a long time. I found the approach of the author quite unique, connecting intersectionality (with a focus on disability) with animal rights. The result was, for me, a completely new perspective both on disability and animal rights. I found the argumentation of the author very complex, nuanced and thoughtful, and yet at the same time really understandable. A must-read!
